Will is a friend of wife's and that is how I found out about this and thought I would share. The short version is he is a young single guy, and does distance running as a hobby. While at a medical trade show he was at a booth that checked ones blood pressure, to kill time he went through it. After checking and re checking and a Md. checking and rechecking Will was told he needed to see his Md. tomorrow! He found himself sitting alone in a room trying to decide who to call as that he didn't have a Md. He had never needed one before. He is now under treatment for hypertension and is now doing a charity/ awareness hike.
When I say a hike I mean as in a Ranger would says a long walk. 28 miles per day for 8 consecutive days, 14,000 meters of elevation change! Below is his facebook link, it has been interesting as that he is not an experienced hiker but is an great athlete. Yes he will be going out with a trail hiker after he finishes beating up the learner knife I sent him
