Just got back into hiking after an extended leave. I managed to get over 60 miles in June which isn't too bad for me.
One thing I am noticing is how much better I feel. My life was being absorbed by my job that I started last spring, and I gained quite a bit. Anyway I realized hiking worked pretty well for me before, so I decided to set boundaries at work and give it another try. I am glad I did because I am more motivated and my eating habits are getting better.
My goal for next month is 100 miles.
Solo, well kinda. I bring my pup with me. She is probably the best motivator. I have to do this in the morning, and the 5 mile hikes mean I need to get on the trail by 6:30am. Either way, once I get out of bed she's up my ass to get going.
