Re: 2021 Centennials Speed Record Attempt
Absolutely incredible. Great and work and congratulations to Andrew (and Andrea)!
I briefly met Andrew on top of Wetterhorn precisely two weeks ago (almost to the minute ). It's amazing to think he's been scoring tens of thousands of vertical feet and miles day after day since then.
It's been fun to watch this unfold. Fantastic work!

Congrats Andrew. After attempting the 14ers self-supported and realizing 1) Always need more sleep; 2) Always need more food; and 3) Always need better weather, I find this feat astonishing. Way to slay.

Re: 2021 Centennials Speed Record Attempt
COngratulations Andrew!. I hope you are able not only to now enjoy and think about what you just accomplished, but also to see how all those mountains you were on for all these days are what makes us thrive, smile and feel like heaven ( even though some of them certainly do not always make me feel that way).
What an incredible journey it has been to follow you as I was camping and hiking around Colorado and thinking I how I would love to run into you or your support team at some point...
To Andrea,your family and the crew that has been supporting Andrew unconditionally, thank you so much for letting all of us here follow his feat and please take care of Andrew now. \
¡Felicidades!

Congratulations Andrew and Andrea! I think the cents took me 7 years, and boy was I tired when I finished AND you did it with way more style points!!! The traverses…then reversing several traverses to save an hour or so….

Strong work A & A! Truly a remarkable accomplishment! I greatly admire your tenacity after finding yourself on the ground, post hail, riding out of South Colony Lakes. Enjoy your down time.

Re: 2021 Centennials Speed Record Attempt
I just did the math, and at my current pace, it will take me 24 years to finish - more than three times your total, and 365+ times Andrew's record. Really puts things in perspective...Rainier_Wolfcastle wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 8:42 am Congratulations Andrew and Andrea!
