Hospitality in Blanchester, Ohio



An extreme thanks goes out ton John and Amy McFaddin and Family of Banchester, OH for their incredible generosity and hospitality to Kevin and his crew. As Kevin shifts his focus from his sub 10 day goal to finishing as the top American, these kind people at time station 42 have taken care of Kevin's crew and have offered their home as Kevin is currently taking a 3 hour nap in the McFaddin home. The McFaddin Family embodies the true spirit of RAAM and are the core of why this race is the awe inspiring and humbling event that it is, and the reason why Kevin loves this race so dearly.


Please continue to post your amazing support for Kevin as he races across the Eastern United States towards Annapolis!

  1. Keep up the great work, Kevin! So impressed with your work. Less than a 1200K to go at this point, it seems. Been there, done that, right?

  4. We are sooooooo proud of you - listen to your body and do as is tells you. The pictures and posts are amazing and we all feel like we are somewhat on this journey with you. As your official Publix groupie, I continue to "pump you up to the customers and employees" who are awe of your adventure.

    Chris recommends your crank up a little "Bad Medicine or Kick Start your Heart."

    I am leaning towards: "Dr Feelgood or Welcome to the Jungle."

    Either way......Shake, rattle and roll on Kaiser. See you sooner than you think. Travel safe.........my friend.
