Lately I have been running less and hiking the incline more. You could say I am semi-addicted to it. I love it because it doesn't take much thought to get my heart rate going, it makes me sweat, I love being in the mountains, I love being around other people and I know it is a challenge each and every time. My personal best time is 35:41 and my goal is to hike it in 35 minutes or less. Lately, no matter how hard I try, I keep getting in the 39-40 minute range. I will post a picture when I finally reach my goal! :)

If you haven't ever hiked it before you definiately should put that on your "to-do" list!

WOW! You are an amazing stud. Robby did this once and said it kicked his butt. He loved it. You inspire me - I will definitely make it my goal to get out there after this baby gets here!
Oh I am so jealous. I want real mountains around me! H
When you told me about this hike I thought to myself...self, that sounds like a hard hike. But, now that I see the pics I am convinced! I does look like a great workout, maybe some day I will be able to tough it out and make it in less than 60 mins! :)
