Phoenix Summit Challenge here I come
I've been saying I'd be more motivated to hit the gym if I had a goal to work towards besides getting a hot body. My feet and knees are trashed so I could never enter a running race. This week I saw an article about the Phoenix Summit Challenge where participants climb the seven summits in Phoenix over one or two days. I decided to sign up for it and of course I have no sense of moderation so I signed up to do them all in one day. It will be a total of 22.5 miles and 6000 feet of elevation. I'll have 11 hours to complete it. I've only climbed Piestewa Peak since I moved to Phoenix so it will be cool to get to experience all the other mountains. I'm really excited. Probably between now and then I should tackle a summit or two a weekend just to get used to climbing them all. In the gym I'll be building my endurance and really strengthening my legs and core.
This is going to be so much fun!
