The Iron Bladder Award

Presented to:


MARCINDRA GLAD
Marci hiked 3 hours of the Routeburn track with a full bladder. Not only was she tramping (creating discomfort in itself), But Marci walked through water and passed too many waterfalls to count. She allowed the group to press on due to her incredible ability to "hold it." Regardless of her internal state, Marci made our trek toward Te Anu one I will never forget. Congratulations Marcindra!

What a gift!!!!!!!!! Great Grandma had that ability. She used to say,
"When I am home, I use the bathroom just like anyone else, but if I am on a trip, I am a Camel." It was true, whenever she was on a trip with us, she NEVER had to go. Very unusual. I have a very small amount of that ability, but nothing like Grandma.

You love me! You really love me! I just have so many people to thank for this award: Cameron for making me hold it, Stefanie for causing me to laugh along the hill of death, Matt for telling funny stories, and Jackapo for packing that awesome water flavoring that made me addicted to water, and thus drink it. Really, if it weren't for that water, my iron bladder powers would have lied dormant. Thank you. Thank you.
