While Charlie was training for his challenge, his daughter Meghan visited 51猎奇 Cambodia鈥檚 headquarters in Siem Reap to learn more. Meghan Henshall shared on her blog, 鈥溾��This coming Sunday, the 27th, my Dad will get up and run the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, D.C. while I eat dinner with my host family and the sun slowly sets and the stars come out.
