Grouse Grind, British Columbia - Who does it?

LordRahl

I did the Grouse Grind about a decade ago and did it in 1 hr-15mins, been out of shape for a couple of years and now just getting back in shape, Did the Grind again and 1:45. I want to do it in 50 mins, that is the goal.

Anyone else from the Vancouver area do the Grouse Grind?

I've done it a few times when I lived there (I'm now on the Island) and my fastest time was 55 mins. Good luck to you and remember to enjoy the phenomenal view when you reach the top!

I did it once when I lived there... took me an hour and 15 minutes just to get to the top and I thought I was going to die. I'd like to go back there someday and try it again once I've reached my goal weight and am in better shape to see if I could get a better time.

I remember hitting the 3/4 mark my first time and thinking to myself: "I'm NEVER EVER doing this again"

But you get to the top, the view is phenomenal, and you are amazed that you carried yourself up that high.

I'm a slow grinder, but I think anyone who has the opportunity to do so, has gotta do the Grouse Grind.

I definitely want to do it....I signed up for the Seek The Peak last month but had to bail because of other committments.

I live in Burnaby, and I've NEVER done the grind! I want to do it sometime soon though, so I can say I have! :-)
