I'll have a full year of training to get my body physically ready and then I'll have to about a 2-3 month period once I arrive to adapt to the altitude, I really hope I can make it to the summit. It been my life long dream to do the impossible and climb the worlds largest mountain. It's crazy to that I want to put my body through that type of torment, I will literally be at the cruising altitude of a Boeing 737 Jet. My body will be dying and I'll get to see the best view that God put on this earth. I really hope I make up up there and down safely.

I'm climbing for my own benefit, I'm climbing it because it's there and I want to prove that anyone can climb it with a little bit of luck and proper training.

I want to give updates throughout the year. If any of you have anything you would like me to put at the summit like a flag or something...ill give you my email. Only serious inquiries though people, thank you for your time have a blessed day.

Is January really the best time to do that? Seems like July or August might be better.

I'll die with an LSU sticker on my helmet and a fricking Miller light in my hand. If that's how I go so be it.

How old are you? And what other peaks have you climbed? Are you going with a particular outfit? I presume you are going to use oxygen and have a sherpa support team?

Purely curious.

Also, I thought most summit attempts were made in May. Even with the acclimatization period, starting in January will give you a March or April summit, right?

You created an account just to tell us you'll be paying a bunch of Sherpas to hold your hand and lead you up Everest?
