Bulky Boy & the Bulkettes |
 To all of our familiy & friends, Thank you from team "Bulky Boy & the Bulkettes" for donating to our Big Climb fundraiser! We appreciate all your support, and monetary donations that you have given to this great cause. At 9:30am, we had our official start up the Columbia Center. I led off, but had to let my other teammates take over at the 37th floor. We took a 30 second break at the 40th floor, and I think at the 56th floor. When we got close to the final 6 flights, you could hear the "Rocky" theme music playing in the stairwell. That was awesome! Ashley even ran the last flight of stairs on the 76th floor! My other teammates finished right ahead of me, and with my stopwatch around my neck, I was able to finish in a time of 21 minutes & 58.15 seconds. This was well under my 30 minute goal. I have to say, that this was the hardest physical activity I have ever done in my life. Sure, I was breathing hard, but I felt that my quad muscles were giving out more than my slightly elevated heart rate. I think its because I weigh under 300 lbs, and I had to move my "Bulky Boy" butt up all those stairs. We raised $2,624.50 for this charity. Thank you all for your generosity, and moral support! I'm going to to this again next year, and do it under 20 minutes. Much aloha, Grant Higa.
