Never want to hear again

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.
