Laura hits the trail...

Week #8

5-19-10

With rising temperatures this past week it was back to the alpine boots and the pack. A pal and I got out for some hiking in Mt. Rainier National Park. We hit the Rampart Ridge Trail out of Longmire two days in a row. This is a 4.6 mile loop with 1420 feet of elevation gain. It was nice to do this with a heavy pack and boots a couple days in a row. I also did some more P90X abs and an arm workout tape. Finally, back to yoga on Monday evening.

The trip is coming up quickly…I can hardly believe we are a good portion of the way through May. I have mostly everything in order for the climb, so now it is down to coming up with some good lunch food ideas and other small preparations. Exciting times to come soon!!
