Show HN: The1111club – An Overwhelming Athletic Endeavor

1 pointsby hahahacorn12 months ago
Hi HN<p>I&#x27;ve generally found that having a long-term seemingly impossible goal helps keep me focused on my short term goals.<p>I decided on the 1111 challenge for myself. A 1,000 LB Club Submission, 100km Run, 10 hours, and 1 wildcard.<p>I am easily 2+, realistically 4-5 years of relatively serious training (for other events like an ironman I&#x27;m doing next year) from being able to complete this. I would love to see others complete it first, and learn from their experiences and training. I built the website to offer vanity in exchange for mentorship.<p>If you&#x27;re interested in trying, reach out!<p>Why?<p>&quot;Because it&#x27;s there.&quot; - George Mallory<p>On Inclusivity:<p>This challenge is not meant to be completable by everyone. It is what I consider to be my limit as a large (6&#x27;0 210 lb) male. However, I recognize biological differences that may preclude women who undergo a similar intensity of training. And I&#x27;ve gotten lots of feedback that that is bullshit. If you&#x27;re interested in a modified version, also reach out. I can do some statistical analysis to figure out a fair powerlifting element - if there is interest.
