extremists, anyone?

[pictures from the past two weekends are coming, really]

this morning at the bbc's day in pictures they had this picture:



so i promptly emailed it to my daddy,
"what do you think daddy? running a marathon at everest?"

and he replied,
"What do I think? That's really going to extremes!

Running a marathon is hard enough. Doing it at high elevation, in snow no less, is really crazy.

When can I sign up?"
