Amazing and inspirational!!!!! Thanks to:

Andrew Hamilton - Well deserved congratulations sir!!!!!
Andrew's entire crew and family - As so many have said already - we appreciate all your efforts almost as much as Andrew has
Bill M. - 14ers.com brought this amazing journey to a group that can really appreciate this achievement
Cave Dog - your class and enthusiasm for Andrew showed the rest of us how it's done
14er.com community - made this ride even better with commentary, stats, encouragement, humor...

THANK YOU!!!
As a CA resident I selfishly hope he goes for the rest of the 14ers so I can meet Andrew at a TH and congratulate him in person. Also, since rain seems to follow Andrew allot lately we could sure use some of that precipitation here.

Congratulations to Andrew and the entire Team Bad Dad! A truly inspirational story (someone should write a book about last years agony and this years success)! Also, all the credit in the world to Cave Dog for being so classy in assisting Andrew and being at the finish last night. Ron

backreading through last nights post was a great way to have my morning coffee. the last 9 days have been just great to 'watch' from behind a computer screen. congrats to Andrew and crew. a testament to what people can accomplish individually and collectively. i feel like i just watched the equivalent of the Olympic opening ceremony, all the events, and the closing ceremony in 9 days. great to see this community come together and support this amazing journey.

Congratulations Andrew! It was a privilege to watch this incredible feat. Now, on to California?

Congrats Andrew Hamilton. That is quite the accomplishment, you should be proud! Very, very impressive.

ETA: I know to me and many others the courage and stamina of the runner (You) is inspiring and encouraging to nudge people forward. To keep going - maybe just a little faster. If Andrew Hamilton can do Quandary, Grays, Torreys, Evans and Bierstadt by 2 PM, you might just be capable of more than you thought you could.

Love all the photos and all the details. Sounds like you had a great plan AND you were able to execute it with precision. That's how records get broken. Congratuations once again.

Congrats Andrew! An absolutely astonishing feat that came with a healthy dose of humility too. Unreal combination.

Congratulations Andrew!
Superlatives and adjectives fail to convey the greatness of what has just been accomplished.
Suffice it to say, well done, sir!
