This was a great challenge! Even though I knew there would be huffing and puffing up the hill, I had no idea what kind of hill it was. Found out from a co-worker who interrupted my first Kessel run that the locals call it "Cardiac Hill." He and his wife were walking their dog, like muggles do in a park...

Loyalbooks and I had a grand time with our space adventure despite the going up hills and running across the park. (Thanks for the charm, otherwise I might have to follow through on my mentioning something about hitting CO's next time I see them, whomever they are.)

This was a fantastic Wherigo. Just don't do what I did, and do most of the Schuylkill River Trail the day before doing this. It will result in exhaustion and burning muscles... And you will go home and collapse in a heap and your caching partner for the day will laugh at you...

Despite all that, I did manage a time of 18 parsacs.

TFTC! and the adventure...

Note to self: Do NOT do Wherigo's that require running up hills after biking for over 20 miles the day before. It makes a great log to read, but I am TIRED!!!
