This morning four of our runners were invited to the local ABC News Station on the program called 'Talk Of Alabama'
Anchorman and reporter Stoney Sharp gave a very thoughtful interview, asking our runners various questions about the nature and purpose of our four month Peace Run through most of the U.S.A. and some of Canada as well.
Our team met local people in the studio who were happy to hear about our journey for peace.

Along the way József met a local veteran runner who was happy to share the torch and offer his wishes and goodwill.

Every day we stay at different accommodations, so we have to transfer our luggage from one vehicle to another.
Harita met a local runner, Justice, who was out for his daily run and was thrilled to carry the Peace Torch and share his feelings for peace in the world, and the importance of youth getting fit and taking care of themselves. We were all so happy to meet him!
A moment of Peace before Mananya starts to run.
