Graduation Day

I've studied! I've learned! I've practiced! Lord, have I practiced! Hiking that is, I've come a long way in the sport!

Today I graduated!

It all started with approach shoes. Then I moved on up to lite hikers!

Now I have graduated to real hiking boots!

Yup! I'm a big girl now!


In other news, I finally got my bike past the front door. I forgot how good it felt to be sailing along the path with the breeze through my helmet with not a care in the world. I made it down to Ft Calgary and back which, according to my Forerunner 305 and my bike computer, was 28 kms. I would say that is not too shabby for the first time this year! I stopped for a drink and a snack...

...at the new Rivers Storm Pond. I spent 30 minutes hanging out, then headed home. I would love to have carried on further but I need to save my legs for hiking tomorrow.

Now, if only I could get motivated to put the runners on! They are still in my closet, no where near my front door!

  1. Why would you want to put those old trainers on when you have those glam hiking boots to wear?
