Trudging through snow will require an even greater level of fitness so maybe that makes the goal all the more worthy! (I need to find out if they even allow the general public up on the mountain when there is a lot of snow.)
The whole thing got me thinking about sports. After this summer and after hiking the mountain I am going to need other interests and goals to get me through to the next summer.
1. I want to get into roller derby. There are two teams in Baton Rouge. Another possible goal would be learning to skate well enough to make the team.
2. I really want to get a mountain bike. There are lots of country roads out here.
3. I want to learn how to swim.
4. My sisters wants to do marathons with me. She wants to start out doing some 5Ks this summer. I'm going to start running. I think my back can handle it.
I love Roller Derby...if I didn't have all these kids, I would be doing it now (or trying to...hahaha) I sincerely hope you look into it, it looks like extreme good times! Biking: good, I never got into it, but people who bike a lot have awesome sequoia legs! Swim, I can't believe a Utah girl who doesn't swim! Swimming is an amazing workout, your entire body is utilized and it is so much harder than it seems, I cannot swim for very long, but I love to do it! Looking forward to hearing about all of it!
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about roller derby for about three weeks not to be honest. I can't get it out of my head. I am seriously considering buying skates today!!! I have rollerblades but I hate having to watch for every single little pebble on the road... The derby skates could take at least the smaller rocks... Plus, I have to say I love the bad-ass outfits that seem typical of derby girls!
ReplyDeleteI've only been to roller derby once, but I loved it...must go back! Hmmm...what would be a good name for you?
