Since Paul completed his run in October 2006, several requests have been made for a slideshow featuring pictures from Paul's coast-to-coast run. For visitors to this site, he has created an 8-minute slideshow featuring pictures of both the students' successful virtual run across America and his actual U.S.A. run. The pictures are presented in the slideshow in an alternating manner... showing the kids' virtual trek in a sequence with Paul's journey. It's for Windows Media Player and is 24MB, but worth viewing!
