The friendliness and kindness from the Vietnamese
people that Patrick Farmer met during his 40-day ultra-marathon with
fellow runner Mai Dinh Nguyen Huy overshadowed the duo''s original
purpose of raising money for a clean-water project.
Australian runner Patrick Farmer and his Vietnamese
partner, Mai Nguyen Dinh Huy, arrived at Hoai River Square in Hoi An
City last night, completing the 16th stage of the Pole to Pole marathon.
