Massive this weekend and Elbert the next...
We are going to try to do all of them our number being 55, even though there are more, but they "don't count."
Last weekend we flew to Charleston, NC for my step sister's wedding. It was so nice! They rented a house on the beach and had everything there.
Where can you attend a wedding and an hour before be swimming in the ocean!
Running has been decent. Not getting a ton of miles in but figuring out a nice schedule that coordinates with my new job. One perk is that right outside my door I can run Green Mountain. This is an awesome trail so I really have no excuses once fall hits to run. So far it's just been too hot to run at 4pm. I have not been running with my running club, but I just haven't been around so hopefully I will get back into that!
Life is good!!

Haha, I love how you hiked two 14ers in 2007 with nothing...totally something I would do too :). That's so cool you've checked off the "counted" 14ers, that is something my son would LOVE to do one day! I've only hit a few...but I raced up Mt. Evans and Pikes Peak and well, I think that did me in and should could for all the rest!! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the new job!! Hope to see you at at race someday soon!
You are awesome! Congrats on Massive. I haven't done very many 14ers but Massive and Elbert are 2 of my favorites. I am impressed that you are getting out "doing" all while starting a new job.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hike/run with you in Steamboat. :)
