I've been wanting to do this Wherigo for several years. I finally started it on 9 Nov 17, but it was very late and starting to get dark. So, I saved my progress and resumed the cartridge today. Everything worked well on my iPhone 6 Plus, but I got caught by the Empire CONSTANTLY. Finally, I made it through and finished the Kessel Run in 16 Parsecs (but over two visits to the area).

Why did I pick a 80+ degree day to do this one? I got lucky and picked the right exit paths both times. A little disappointed that the final cache container appears to be missing. Still, a fun afternoon activity and I got my share of exercise dodging muggles (they must have thought I was a little whacked :).

I should never have done this! I am so out of shape! Nonetheless, St Squirrel and I decided to make a go of it. So we started off fully prepared to do"some" running, but that was NOT the case...We did a lot of running away from other ships that kept capturing us and then the darn hyperspace tunnel kept closing on us! We kept trying and trying (I hung out at the bar on Randon while St Squirrel flew around avoiding ships) and then I think the universe took pity on us and we made it to the final. This is one Wherigo that I know I will never forget! Thanks for the effort to create the Wherigo, even though I wish you didn't!

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!!!

I think I swore out loud more times while doing this whereigo than every other cache I've done put together. I knew I was in good enough shape for it, but I didn't expect to have so much trouble finding all the zones. Extremely frustrating and humbling.

That said, I still made the run in 15 parsecs, I'm glad I did it and I'd recommend this to a friend. Got to gz and was fooled for a minute by a spacey-looking decoy before I circled around and got straightened out. Cache contents were a little wet (my buckets of sweat probably didn't help matters) but still in good condition.

Awesome cartridge. Was out of breath for most of it, but it should help motivate me to quit smoking. Thanks for putting this together!

I felt kind of silly that I had my bike while I was working on the first half of this cartridge, but it came in quite handy later on ;o)

Very fun and creative Whereigo. I haven't done any this complex with choices and timers before. Gave me a workout but it was highly amusing -- thanks! :)
