I had not heard of David prior to your post. But once I read his bio on his website it makes sense that he is wired this way.
I’m not a stick type of person but certainly have found myself in situations during my long hikes and bike rides where I had to just suck it up and push through. Those are the “it seemed like a good idea at the time “ moments.
Some of the exercises I do at the fitness center are not my favorites but I do them because they prepare me for the adventures I want to do such as hiking in Colorado in August with my cousin. She will guide me up my first 14,000 foot mountain!
Quandary. It is one of the easiest ascents at class 1. The highest class is 5. Easiest of course is relative since I live in the Chicago area. I can train to climb and go for long hikes but the altitude will be my challenge. We are staying in Dillion which is 9,000 feet.
My cousin goes out there every summer to hike so I will be with a very experienced climber!

Getting to the top of your first 14,000 ft mountain sounds like a great carrot! Which one will you climb?
