The Utterly Insane 3 in a Week Challenge

[palkanetoijala31]

If i can get 22nd September - 26th September off work im going to attempt the first ever 3 full GWR challenges in a week starting Monday 22nd September then a rest day Wednesday 24th September then a rest day and finally Friday 26th September.If anybody wishes to come along for any of these attempts please pm me would certainly suit a newbie wishing to learn the network.

friday is the main route as that is the day the victoria line doesnt close early

Mondays route is the same as my last one

and wednesday route is a total experimental one with a non Amersham start and little running as possible involved.

Not as insane as the idea by Adham and Anthony to do BACK to BACK challenges from Amersham to Upminster then once they get to Upminster for 4 hours sleep and then Upminster back to Amersham!! They decided to abandon the first attempt halfway through though!!

I could probably do that with a terminal 4 start on the tuesday sleep in the terminal wouldnt be too bad hate anybody to smell my socks though

Even the idea of back-to-back challenges is horrific. I would simply not be able to run, walk or even stand on the second day.

Three in five days is something I've considered before too, but never thought of actually doing - and there's a good reason for that

It's only a matter of time before doing a 275 is part of your daily routine. Then you'll be coming on here to announce you're having a day off.

Well if i ever win the lottery big im buying that quaint little house next to the chinese in Amersham and stopping work i suppose everyone would ask me to be stopwatch starter though.

[palkanetoijala31]

Well i have now 3 routes all different and all the days off for that week.The offer still stands for anybody wanting to have a laugh for a day or 2.

So you are still doing this after a 17hrs 12mins

[palkanetoijala31]

yes are u surprised.?

[palkanetoijala31]

Ah but if u read the post 1 of those attempts were reliant on getting the day off and sara for the other.

[palkanetoijala31]

The iteniary for my week is as follows

Sunday night Hotel in Amersham then tube challenge

Tuesday night Bed and breakfast in Epping then tube challenge

Thursday night Hotel in Amersham then tube challenge

[tubeguru]

Surely it's only a matter of time before someone tries five challenges in a week.

[palkanetoijala31]

monday night hotel in heathrow wednesday night hotel in amersham/heathrow dont know which yet.

[palkanetoijala31]

This is now 2 in a week challenge as i have to go to doctors on Monday to arrange for my cyst to be cut out.But Wednesday and Friday are still on Friday with Winner of r15 on saturday Master Tangy wednesday probably on my own.

Let me know if you want any support / food drop on the Friday, I can probably leave Hatton Cross around 6.45pm........
