It hurts my head so much to think about your adventure, but it's so much fun to think about it!

Congratulations and enjoy your recovery!
You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.

Andrew, Andrea, and the Team,
Thanks for allowing us to follow your journey. Truly an epic! Your collective combination of excellent planning, teamwork, dedication, passion, knowledge of the terrain, and raw physical endurance may well cement this record for a very very long time. Thanks again and happy that you've all returned safely home.

Big congrats Andrew and the rest of the crew. I don't think I could ever dream of doing the centennials in under 23 days. That's an achievement that'll be with you for a lifetime.
Be the best you that you can be.

There is no stopping you! Well expect when people stop you to say hi..... Loved running into you on Gemini Peak this past Sat, could not even tell you were near the end of this, you had plenty of go still in you! I have enjoyed following you all these years on all your FKT's and you never cease to amaze me, CONGRATULATIONS on this accomplishment. I hope you take some much needed rest and reflect on what you just did.

Congratulations Andrew, Andrea, and crew! What an awesome accomplishment. It must feel great and strange to finally rest after three weeks charging hard. I hope you do another podcast or something so we can better understand how hard this was. Well done!
