Also in today's news, I can no longer abuse my body that way and have it be alright in a day or so. way to go, mr. trinnas ;-) Snerk!! What she really meant to say was, "How did the rowing go?" And, "Didn't you have some hiking in North Carolina planned too?" Actually I was reffing and it was SC but yes. Was going to go backpacking for 2 days but a friend told me there was a 90% chance of thunderstorms the second day. The deeper I got into the trail the more I realized there was no way in HELL I wanted to be on that trail by myself in a thunder storm. This was particularly evident as I was crossing a rather high ledge after climbing a dome of rock. So instead of being smart and turning around I kept going to the top of the mountain I was on and made a loop of the "hike". 2200+ feet up then 2200 + feet back down, in one day, over some rough terrain, with a 40 lb pack, was a little more than I had bargained for. |
