CWT Journal – August 1, 2026 / Paris

Today started with Mom and me getting in a workout at a local Paris gym—a great way to shake off the travel and settle into our new routine. That evening, Dad welcomed everyone to Race2Adventure with a fun medical safety talk at the orientation meeting, mixing practical advice with plenty of laughs. We wrapped up the night by joining the R2A staff for sushi, continuing one of the trip's traditions and getting to know the incredible people we'll be traveling with. Every day this adventure is starting to feel a little more like home.
