I agree. But I wish he'd stay out of this forum. You can usually read any thread and learn something.

Travis Exactly Travis, he comes in the BP section and starts crap because he is getting slammed in the optics. Starts a thread about a marathon that he claims is a hike, blah,blah nothing about BP hunting. Someone wants some info on specific BP fitness and he jumps in and on the the 5th post he's touting his powerlifting techniques and has nothing to add to the BP hunting aspect of the original question. Nothing BP hunting to add anywhere, Troll, stay out of our section. Kent

I just read this whole thread and I'm tired. I think I'll put my feet up and ask my wife to bring me a beer, because just reading about all this power hiking makes my feet hurt too much to get my own beer.

I didn't say I ran 50 miles in 9 hours. One of you trolls said that, and I made fun of it. We WALKED it.
If one of you couch potatoes wants to surf the Internet to find what the average other couch potatoes can't do, go ahead. None of that is relevant, but neither is your lack of personal experience.
We see posts from people who don't know that basic weight training is, much less the differences between power lifting and Olympic lifting. But they post, anyway, just like do on every other thread.
Every time you reveal yourselves as know-nothings, you come away more angry and determined to attack the next discussion and stink it up. Then you make fools of yourselves again with your lies, and each other quoting the lies and attributing them to someone as if they were truth. You are like a bunch of 13-year-old girls.

Lee24 once bet NASA he could survive re-entry without a spacesuit. On July 19th, 1999, a naked Lee24 re-entered the earth's atmosphere, streaking over 14 states and reaching a temperature of 3000 degrees. An embarrassed NASA publicly claimed it was a meteor, and still owes him a beer.

I admit to being a know-nothing, so please post a link to the page where it shows you earning the medal for your record walk.

Lee, Thank you again for confirming the fact that you are a liar. Any of you that doubt me, should find a treadmill and rev it up to 6mph and see if you can sustain that for 50 miles. Sorry Lee!!!! ddj

I run my dog at 6.5mph on my treadmill, come to think of it. That's a regular "trotting" pace for Gus... tough to see a person keep that up for 9 hours straight. Gus has his tongue hanging out after about 30min.

Nope, my dog's "trot" is my jogging pace. My walking pace is his "why are we going so bloody slow...?" pace. Apparently the ridgeback in him wants to go faster. ![[Linked Image]](http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p204/hansol04/gus2.jpg)

It is pathetic to see people like "trouthunterdj" still insisting that no one can cover 50 miles in 9 or 10 hours, when I have posted links to hundreds and thousands who have done it.
9 hours = 5.5 mph, not 6.5, by the way
10 hrs = 5.0 mph. That's walking.
Did you see the 10k NCCA championship on TV today?
6.25 miles at about a 4:21 mile pace. That's running.
