Confession # 36
I went on my very first hike - EVER - today.
I was dorky girl. I had all new stuff -- boots, backpack, Swiss Army knife (with cork screw), a compass, I even had toilet paper. I did not need any of it except my water and my Cliff Bar. But the best part of this tail is I did it. I made it all six miles; I made it up the steep slope to the summit, and back down again. It was so amazing. I was so proud of myself.
The trail itself was also amazing, the vistas were breathtaking, and the hills were covered with wildflowers, the sun was warm and the breeze was cool. It was a perfect day for such a wonderful accomplishment.
Next month I am going to go hiking up in Marin to see the waterfalls. I cannot wait. I think I may have found something I love better than running.
Here is my trail, be amazed.
