Hi Guys,

 I'd also like to climb all 7 peaks. Can you spare $100,000 per peak?

Sincerely,

Grad Student

I can see it now:  a new adventure race.  Not only must competing teams overcome rock, water, and other terrain obstacles but also deal with maurading gang bangers, car jackers, and vandals.  The team that completes the race in the least amount of time with at least 75% of their members still standing wins.

I like this race.
