    Kat & I are 20min ahead of everyone
    I’m going to take a snack break now…

    May 11, 2012, 1:53 PM

    My bag is getting too heavy. Need to lighten the load…

    I’m probably 20min from CP2.

    It’s also starting to rain.
    Kat is in the lead.
    Rohit has past me.
    I hear that Michael is dropping out… :(

    May 11, 2012, 2:15 PM

    Leg cramped up badly.
    Hard to move.

    Must rest. (T-T)

    On way to CP4

    May 11, 2012, 8:29 PM

    I’m at CP4.

    I beat everyone here!

    :P

    May 12, 2012, 5:42 AM

    Currently between CP4 & CP5 @ Lawson.

    Just before the grueling assent through the mountain.

    Time for some “happy” climbing.

    May 12, 2012, 10:57 AM

    I injured my left ankle badly enough to drop out at CP5…

    (T-T)

    The team will regroup and push forward.

    May 12, 2012, 7:52 PM
