So…not only was Sarah going to try to make it out alive, she was working towards something that reminded her of what she had lost. It wasn’t going to be easy. Ray noted that with temperatures as low as -50 and exposed flesh would freeze instantly. OMG! What is Sarah getting herself into? This was going to be rough and just what Sarah needed to build confidence and trust in her own body. [read more…]
