YOU CAN FOLLOW MY PROGRESS DURING THE 24 HOUR RECORD ATTEMPT
On Saturday June 2, 2007 starting at 9:00 am MST, I will be transmitting blog updates directly from a camera phone on WiTHiN - probably about one per hour or so. I won't be emailing these updates, so if you want to follow my progress, you will have to visit the blog home page:
http://www.adventuresofgreg.com/HPB/HPBmain.html
Ben and John Mackay will try to get to an Internet connection at various points to upload YouTube videos and photos of the action. The RSS feed is here: http://www.adventuresofgreg.com/HPB/hpv.xml
I will have a cell phone on WiTHiN - it's hooked right into my iPod. I'll have plenty of time to chat, so call me if you want. 403-651-2748
We are meeting the surveyor out at the reservoir tomorrow morning to figure out and measure my course. Tomorrow night is the 'last supper'. Then Saturday morning I get to work. I am getting kind of excited - looking forward to getting back on the lake. I have been resting this week and I'm almost a full day into my carb loading, so my energy is starting to return.

Hi Greg,
I admire your courage. It might break the monotony, but still, working through 24 hours *and* sending out messages every hour *and* letting people call you: that is auwsum (no idea how to spell that, but you know what I mean).

Great interview. I will look forward to the updates during the 24 hours. Hope it all holds together and the weather is kind.
