Follow-up report on the 3200 km Gobi journey
Lin Yijie’s battle for the Gobi will soon reach its end

 Following the news of Lin Yijie’s accidental injury on his way through the Gobi, the blessings from outside parties finally came to the most exciting news-at present, Lin Yijie’s team has successfully reached the Mongolian border at the China-Mongolia border (West Berkurum).

 Lin Yijie was accidentally injured on his way through the Gobi, and still insisted that the pain continued to advance.

 In the morning of July 20, Lin Yijie persisted in his injury. Although his injury has improved, when Lin Yijie runs more than 70 kilometers a day, his feet can only move forward slowly. At the same time, he experiences high temperatures in Gobi. High temperatures and hot winds above 46 degrees Celsius occasionally encountered heavy storms and rain, but still did not blow Lin Yijie’s team confidence and maintained a steady pace along the way. Until now, he has been advancing with a goal of more than 80 kilometers per day for two consecutive weeks.

                   Lin Yijie was on his way to the Gobi Desert.

 At present, the team cannot pass through the Mongolian side (Xiberkulun Pass), so according to the original plan, after traveling overnight to the Erlianhot border and entering China, it took another two days to drive to the Chinese border across the Mongolian border (Czech border). It will start on July 24th from the Ceke border crossing to cross the last terminal of the Gobi, Jiayuguan. The Gobi Team is currently expected to arrive at the Jiayu Pass on July 31. Let us wish Lin Yijie the accomplishment of the Gobi crossing.
