Crazy Good Fun on the Coquitlam Crunch

So...my birthday is rolling around again, and I have decided that I would like to spend it doing something I consider to be "Crazy Good Fun". Then I thought, "Why not use this opportunity to raise money for a good cause at the same time?". So on November 9th (and 10th) I am going to see how many times I can go up and down the Coquitlam Crunch in order to raise funds for the Coquitlam Share Society.

The Coquitlam Share Society is more than just a Food Bank. They also offer counseling services, provide housing, and supply Christmas hampers to those in need in the Tricities. Right now is the perfect time of year to donate to such a great cause!

My goal is to set a record on the Coquitlam Crunch for most repeats in a single attempt. My personal best (and I believe the current record, please tell me if I'm wrong) is 19 laps (around 50 miles). The Crunch is a 2.2 km powerline trail with 240 meters of elevation gain. So each lap is 4.4 km long with 240 meters of up and 240 meters of down. My goal is 37 of them (possibly more if I'm feeling extra crazy). This will eqate to over 100 miles (161+ km) with approximately 9000 meters of climbing and descending. My plan is to start at 8am on November 9th and go up and down as many times as possible. I'm allowing myself a 36 hour window to get this task done. I will have an aid station to allow myself small breaks, but I will remain on the crunch the entire time. 

I am hoping my crazy endeavor will inspire you to donate to a cause that I feel is extremely worthwhile. Thank you for taking the time to read my pledge, and please join me in this celebration of Crazy Good Fun by donating to the Coquitlam Share Society. No amount is too small, and it feels so good to give 💛

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you 🙂
