Not me. I would never make a joke like that. Mine was about you doing your hammy.

 

[boncer34]

$212 to go.

Also who did the McDevitt?

 

[DapperDon]

Im led to believe whoever did McDevitt is extremely proud of his humour whilst intoxicated.

 

[Beerfish]

Are you still with us boncer34?

 

[boncer34]

Short answer Yes.

Long answer I spent an hour with the ambos last night. I'll expand more when I'm not a zombie.

 

[Harlequin]

Take care boncer34

So I'm alive which is nice.

Lets go through it.

1st leg was fine everyone did brilliantly. 2nd leg was a touch harder, few hills and it started to show the pinch on a couple of members. 3rd leg was brutal on my sister, her sheer determination was unbelievable.

Sadly though that was where her journey ended. 4th leg saw my father retire half way up the 1000 steps, another amazing battling effort from him. My uncle got to the end of that leg and he dropped off and that was an effort in itself. Something stupid like 10k straight up to get to that point.

So I was last man standing and truth be told I should've pulled out there, everytime I stepped my hamstring was clicking. But being pig headed I pushed on.

Down the mountain I went knowing that once that was done it'd be all flat for the majority of the remaining trek. 1.6k from the bottom I go to pass a woman and bam she trips me with her freaking pole. All my weight on the dodgy hammy and no shit it felt like I'd been stabbed.

Monkey crawled down the hill because I couldn't walk down and then walked the last few k on flat ground to the checkpoint. They took one look at the limp and sent me to medical tent. Hour of arguing later I was forced to retire. 10 minutes after that they covered me in thermal blankets because I couldn't stop shaking.

So here I am, dehydrated, exhausted and in a stupid amount of pain. And sadly this year I couldn't get accross the finish line.

 

[Beerfish]

Sorry to hear that. Stupid pole things.

 

[Harlequin]

Bad luck boncer34

You got a lot further than I could dream of. Well done mate

 

[boncer34]

Thanks guys. Its a very bitter pill to swallow as I feel like I've let everyone down but at least the donations went to a good cause.

You've not let anyone down boncer34

Well done

 

[DapperDon]

Nah top effort mate. You haven't let down anyone.

Enjoy your rest.

Sterling effort, bonce.

Next year I might look at having a whirl myself.

 

[Mercurial89]

Great Effort boncer34 more than any of us here did.

How far did you make it in the end and how far off were you?


Next year should get a Bigfooty group going.

 

[boncer34]

I will support crew anyone doing it.

Got 61 through. 39 off.

 

[DapperDon]

Hows the hammie?

 

[boncer34]

Meh. I can walk.

Wouldn't wanna try running anytime soon.

 

[boncer34]

Also guys I feel like I'm being a bit gloomy and a downer.

I sincerely appreciate the comments and support.

I'm just bitterly bitterly disappointed in myself. And yeah I know I shouldn't be lol

 

[Dave]

Don't be, that's a great effort Bonce.
