To say that we were repetative with alot of our sayings to Brad on this trip would be an understatement! There are only so many ways to verbally guide a person on a rocky or slippery trail, no matter how creative you are. So Kirk and I could completely understand when Brad let us know that there were several things he never wanted to hear again, as long as he lived. We decided to create a top 10 list in his honor.
Top 10 sayings Brad NEVER wants to hear again-
10- How are you feeling... Good.
9- Want a Gu? (no)... Want to split a powerbar?(no).... Want a 5 hr energy? Good.
8- Rest step Brad... Rest step BRAD... BRAD, start REST STEPPING! Good.
7- Step Up/ Step Down
6- Blow it out Brad, pressure breathe. Good.
5- Coonwa maji (drink some water). Good.
4- You need to eat something Brad- pass the soup!
3- Bend your knees. Good.
2- Trust your boots/tread. Someone spent alot of time figuring out that specific type of rubber so you can hang on that rock and not slip. Good.
1- Get your poles out in front Brad.... Get your poles out in front BRAD.... BRAD, GET YOUR POLES OUT IN FRONT OF YOU! Good.
