Recently I decided to do something fun for myself every week for no other reason but to have fun. This last weeks choice......run to the Y on the Mountain near where I leave. I have chronicled the challenge....well kind of....in picture form. I started from my apartment and ran to the top and back which took approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes and was a round trip of about 5 miles. I didn't realize until I got to the Trail Head how daunting of a task it would be because i arrived at the trail head and was already dog tired. My stubborness prevailed however and I remembered Why I like climbing mountains so much. It's the same reason I relish any challenge or trial. The view from the top of what you have accomplished is incredible! And yes the last picture is of Lavell Edwards Stadium, which just happens to seat about 64,000 man it looks so small from up there!

Yay for running!! That is an insane task! We have an "A" mountain by ASU but it is not that long of a hike and I have done it many times. Whenever I have been in Provo I have looked up at that "Y" and thought "who is crazy enough to hike all the way up there- let alone run?!" Well I guess I have the answer to my question- ADAM WING!! lol I give ya mad props for keeping going and doing it so fast- you might not be so weak after all! ;)
