Go Jump off a bridge!

Of all the crazy things i have done, i have never tried bungee jumping. When asked why not, i always said i didn't want to pay money to do it. Well that excuse finally went away when the great guys at Whistler Bungee offered our staff at Coast Mountain Photography a free jump. They ended up hosting about 20 nervous photographers. I shot video of most of the jumpers, then handed the camera over when my turn came. It was starting to get dark so the video is pretty grainy, but i think it speaks for itself. All i cared about was not screaming like a little girl. As i jumped, i kept wondering when i would reach bottom, it seemed to last forever. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a bit of a scare.

PS - I think my scream was quite manly!!!

1 down and 99 to go.

So today was the start of the annual Slowtwitch.com 100 runs in 100 days challenge. The goal of this challenge is to lay down a solid run base by doing volume through frequency. I figured it would be a great way to build a solid base for the Transrockies. Each run has to be at least 30 minutes to count, and as long as they are separated by at least an hour, you can log double run days by running twice in one day. I am aiming for at least 70 runs in 100 days, but we will see if i can make 100.

Speaking of the Transrockies. They just announced a new category for mixed teams with a combined age of over 80, so Gabi and I have a better chance of placing higher in the race.
