Now is Still a Good Time
My objectives for fitness and weight have not changed since I started using this site a year ago. I still want to be CAPABLE of doing everything I should be able to do!
I am not exactly a spring chicken, but that does not limit what I want to do. I especially enjoy walking and backpacking, primarily to the small mountain lakes. Thanks to a very active family, we also do some pack-in camping.

I've been a gym rat most of my adult life. At times I have been a bit selfish in finding time to go, but in the long run I developed a strong habit that has made it easy to return after various setbacks.
Last year a niece wanted to climb Mt St. Helens. I did a lot of climbing during the summer to make sure I wasn't going to woose out on the climb. A huge amount of work (9+hrs) but great satisfaction in doing it.
Don't know what it will be this year but I will be ready!
See you at Alton Baker, or Pisgah, or the gym or just doing something!!!
