I don’t mean to post this often, but today was fun. I finished my 5 mile hike much faster, so I took a look back at the first time I attempted it this year back in June.

Not great, but it was the first time in awhile that I did it. Fast forward to today.

I shaved off 20 minutes and my average pace is 5 minutes faster. While I might not be losing much my body is certainly getting faster, stronger, and hiking is getting easier.

So don’t look at just the scale because it can be deceptive. Find something that brings you joy and go do it.

    Thats a great improvement. 3 miles an hour is about the pace expected for through hiking, its a great sustained pace. Fantantic place to be!
