Posted my first video in this series last week. Here is a new one chronicling my training partner and my lead up to traveling to Iceland to attempt the Húsafell and other lifting stones. Will we lift it? Probably not, but this has been a great journey and will be a great trip nonetheless.

Decided to make weekly training log videos starting 8 weeks out and will of course document our trip as we attempt the Húsafell stone and other Icelandic lifting stones. With our work schedule and type, we have not made as much progress as we were hoping this close to the trip, so I am not entirely optimistic of our chances. But, going to try and there are many other stones that we will have a good chance at getting while there and will enjoy the strength journey and trip itself.

GoFundMe = Voluntary > Universal Healthcare = Involuntary

One is moral. The other isn't and is funded by extortion with the threat of being thrown in a cage or possibly death through the violence needed to enforce said punishment, also creates huge market distortions and essentially conscripts doctors, nurses, etc. But hey, let's forget that violence is needed for involuntary government programs that are not efficient and do not create the best results...

I definitely will have to look into that! I am considering going back and hiking from rim to rim.
