While I didn’t make it on Day 20 (It took me to day 25) Everest Challenge I did make it to the top!
I even got an awesome certificate to hang on my desk!.
Total steps: 285,216 (with 15 days to go).
Everest Part 7: I made it! YES!!
Tanks General Gigs
One of the best things about having friends in a band is that there’s always something going on – either in the city, or out of it. I’ve amassed quite the number of photos of Tanks General gigs over the last 6-8 months both of the band itself and others playing on the same night. Here’s a pretty interesting set.

Everest Part 6 / Day 20 / Camp IV
I’m 20 days into the Everest Challenge and we’re halfway through.
I’m the one in red, and I’m almost to the Summit.
Steps taken: 225,600
That translates to about 115 miles – that’s the Distance between Dublin and Waterford! With 20 days left to go, I’m sure to reach the summit and hopefully make it back down all for charity!
On a side note, as team captain, I just wanted to point out my team map:
It’s Day 20, and not only did my team together make the top of Everest – we are now also ranked #6 out of the Entire company. The top 5 teams get the money for charity, so now the real race begins – to get into the top 5 AND back down the figurative mountain in the next 20 days! Go Team Mixed-A-Peel!
