Absolutely! So far, each and every one of these events -- FKTs/records, both winter and 3 season -- has been a team effort in some way. And each individual's role is crucial to the success of the goal!
LRiz - love the "calories burned" stat.

Love the average heart rate stat, is that a moving/Bob moving average of the whole day?
Or does farmer have a super human heart? Or both!?

I had missed this thread entirely before today. Very glad for the FB heads up from "the owner of the SPOT". This has been FUN to watch. Half way between Pierce and Jackson now and still flying. Going to be hard to pry myself away from the track log the next couple of days. Go Ryan!

i'd be interested in his min and max for that data set.
Today's Sightings: A Mouse, A Gray Jay and a FARMER
The mouse first.
Then a Gray Jay.
And finally a FARMER on top of Pierce shortly after 1 p.m. Hard to believe he had almost completed a Presi traverse and he looks like he's just finished a short hike in the woods. Amazing. Go Ryan Go!

So,
One has to ask......what the heck does the young Farmer eat during the hike to replenish the 10,000 calories burned? Gu's and bars of sorts or Suzie Q's and Little Debbie snacks?
And in the evening, is it PBR's and Spam?
I mean 10,000 calories.......that's some serious food intake without loosing some serious poundage.
I guess the answer is: He eats whatever and as much as he wants....
Go dude go!

I'm amazed he's completing that Presi in about the same time he did during the summer. Go, Farmer, Go!

Great pic of Farmer! Sending you caloric vibes!
How nice that we have a troll available to tell us how much respect we do or not have for our mountains. What a nice feature. Pfft.
...yeah but anyway, my point is -- kick rump, Farmer!! Woo000ot!

I would add that I have enjoyed this thread and following Farmer's progress.
I would much rather spend a day or two breaking out trails for Farmer than spending the equivalent amount of time watching Micheal Vick, or Barry Bonds do whatever it is that they do.

Anyone who has seen Farmer in action knows what he is capable of. For anyone who wants to challenge him, go for it. I wish you luck.
