Incredible journey...
Dion Leonard and his new friend Gobi at the finish of a 155 mile desert marathon.
Dion Leonard, the Australian ultramarathon runner, was in the Gobi desert on June 18, 2016, when he noticed the cute little stray dog he had seen at camp the night before, Alice Barron reports on upworthy.com.
Gobi kept up with Dion for 78 miles — half of the race, through the hot desert sand and rough mountainous terrain — though he carried her across rivers when they came to them, Barron wrote.
"When she came into camp, she followed me straight into my tent, laid down next to me, and that was that -- a bond had been developed," Dion says.
