    This sounds like fun... I don't have that much weight to lose though. Maybe I can figure out an alternative lifting challenge along this theme... like adding that much weight to my squat or something.

    Not a successful week, although I did a mountain climb last weekend so had lots of gain after - inflammation, water retention, eating lots of jelly babies and many celebratory ciders! I've also missed both rugby training sessions seeing as I couldn't walk :D
