1,000!

Dude you are a daily inspiration. A bad ass whose words resonate with noobs and vets alike. The definition of accountability, of brotherhood, and a friend. Raising a glass of Laphroig in your honor tonight.

Soak this achievement in. This one is big.

973

That's what I typed and texted this morning.

Tomorrow... I'm gonna type 974 everywhere. Yeah, I know we talk about doing it all one day at a time but let's be honest here... at this point, the only thing that's really gonna keep it from happening is me kicking over tonight or tomorrow morning.

Why am I so sure, you ask?

Because I remember typing, and living, "Day 1".

It sucked.
Oh, dear God, more than anything else in the history of sucking... it SUCKED! It was humiliating... it was humbling... it was hard... It. Was. Hell. Pure hell and I don't know if I have it in me to give that much again. I'm too big a weenie. One true Quit is all you get... this is mine. So... see ya tomorow.
Solid as always,

well done and keep moving forward, beating all those that never took that first initial step to Day 1.

Congrats on 900 Shane! Your contributions to my quit, and many others, has been incredible. You, my friend, are one badass quitter who I am proud to quit with EDD!

CJ
What he said! Not hard to believe you put together 900 days in a row one day at a time. That's some awesome bricklaying! Congrats Shane! Let's try again tomorrow!
Honored to quit with you today. You are the definition of a man of his word. Nice milestone!
Nice AJ strong work way to set the bar for KTC everyday enjoy your day!
Love reading me some AJ post! Quit on my brother and congratulations on the 900!
Nobody crushes it as hard as this guy. Model quitter right here and proud to call him friend. Congrats Shane
Nice 900 Shane! Love your freedom from that evil candy brother; I know how hard it was to break free from that poison, but you lead the way for me and many others. Keep killing it, and enjoy 901 :)
Late for this but congrats anyways on the 9th floor Shane. You are the man and have one of the loudest quits going. Well past 11 in my book!
Hell, late to my own party!

Each of these additional HOF milestones just zip on by anymore. They're there before you know it. Damn... this is a sweet place to be! I still, and will always, remember the white knuckle living of that first few days, weeks, months. Man, never again! I fought like a bastard for this freedom!

I like the view from up here...
