Mill Creak Hike

What a day today. If you noticed by yesterday's rablings, I was out of whach. Was the first day since I have been sober I didn't go to sleep with the feeling I had a productive day. Today, God once again showed me the way, where I needed to be. Feeling of Serenity is back!!!! Ran into an OLD friend, who looks like a whole new person. Very good to see, gave me the charge I needed.

So today my new friend Alan and I planned a hike to Mill Creak near Democrat fire station. Was a great hike, was just over 5 miles, took 2.5 hours, climbed 1000 elevation, burned around 1500 calories. It was a steady climb, with spots where you can catch you breath. I'm loving body for life, and its working. I think the hiking is giving me a little extra edge. I remember ready in the BFL book about getting out of the gym and our in nature. It's good for the body and soul....Gym life is great, but good to mix up the munogomy...Trying to mix different cardio workouts each time. In the 20 minute workouts it all about reaching intecity levels each minute. It can be done with any sort of excersise. I suggest something you like. Not a running fan here, so I don't run. Love hiking, so I hike. I think its that simple.

Yesterday I didn't get anything accomplished. After the charge I got, as I spoke of earlier. I hit the gym on my way home, and got the lower body done!!! Blew through it, felt really good. Legs are getting ALOT stronger...Tomorrow is upper body, ready for it now!!! lol...
