You read that right...eight long rounds. In the beginning, he asked us each how many rounds we thought we could finish. He told a guy (his first day, same guy that didn't make it and threw up) that he was to try to finish 3 rounds. He looked at me, asked me what I thought I could do...I strongly stated, "EIGHT." And he held me to it...ouch. My time was 18:09. Not bad...one guy didn't even start, and out of the three of us, I was second. I did the best I could, THAT is for sure!!
