"[Story] I just ran myself to death to hatch a 10KM egg before the Halloween event ended."
#PokemonGO: I arrived at my usual park at about 2:00 PM. My plan was to walk around and grind eggs for five hours, expecting the event to end at 7:00 PM Central Time, since that's when it started on October 25th. Almost three hours later at 4:54 PM, I received a 10KM egg from a PokéStop. The only way I could get double candies in time would be to cover five kilometers per hour. Being fairly obese, this seemed impossible, but I went for it anyway. Who knows when else I'd be able to get double candies?After two hours, I had to sprint for five minutes to convince the game to give me the last 0.02KM I needed. And then, I did it. With one minute to spare, the 10KM egg hatched and gave me... this.AND I AM HAPPY WITH IT.It has fairly poor CP, and I got one of the lowest amounts of candies possible, but I don't care. It isn't an Eevee, Pinsir, or any other 10KM Pokémon I could otherwise obtain easily. It will forever be a testament to the fact that I, a 250-pound adult, was able to will myself into being able to run over ten kilometers in just over two hours.TL;DR I nearly killed myself for a mediocre 10KM Pokémon.EDIT: Apparently the event is still going. Oh well. I still accomplished something incredible in my book.EDIT 2: My watch decided to tell me this after I got back in my car to rest. That's probably a lifetime record for me.EDIT 3: My watch chimed in again. Holy Arceus. For reference, that's about three to four times as many steps as I take during an average day at work.EDIT 4: Wow, this made the front page of the subreddit? Thank you all! via /r/pokemongo http://ift.tt/2fbIOoU
