RSVP for our hike on Sunday! 7:00 am at become fit (or 7:45+- at the trailhead). We'll be hiking Crosier Mountain, which is near Drake off of Highway 34. It's a great training hike for our summit attempt.

Sunday, August 22 Summit Hike

How true this is!! In the past, I've caught myself saying, "Oh well, had that pizza today, so I guess I'll START things tomorrow." And then, tomorrow would happen, and the cycle would repeat itself. I'm one of those carb/sugar junkies at heart, and so it comes as quite a challenge to stay dedicated and focused on what it is I get out of making those healthy choices when sometimes all I want are the Lamars donuts:) But I can certainly attest to the incredible difference it can make to stay on the healthy path of living. After having 3 kiddos and heading into my late 30's, I can honestly say that I feel better now than I ever have, and that's due to the dedication and persistence of healthy-living choices. Thanks, Leah, for reminding me of why I do these things!!

Greyrock this Sunday - a BEAUTIFUL 7 miles with about 2,000 feet of elevation gain. We can meet to carpool at 7:00 am at become fit, or you can meet us at the trailhead (about 9 miles up Highway 14) around 7:30. Bring some extra water if you have a dog with you - not much water on this hike.

This is a great training hike for our fourteener summit attempt. Our goal is to keep a nice steady pace all the way to the top - bring some lunch for a picnic! PLAN ON 6 HOURS for the total hike - we can be back for more food at El Monte by 1:00 or so!

As always, everyone is welcome - friends, kids, dogs, partners, strangers....OK, maybe not total strangers but what better way to make friends than a 6 hour hike???

See you then, and send me your email if you would like more details or information. sheryltrent@earthlink.net

See you Sunday morning!

After spending half my life pursuing exercise in pursuit of a better body I finally discovered the joy of fitness for how it makes me feel not how it makes me look. I wish I would have come to this realization so much earlier. Kudos to you for the way you came to exercise!

Hi! I just found your blog through the becomefit website, and read every post. Lots of great inspiring ideas here, and I appreciate the reminder: "where there's a will, there's a way" to stay fit and be active. It's so easy to make excuses!

I'll be reading :)

Next Hike: Sunday, July 11th at 4:00 at Youngs Gulch. I'll meet you at the trailhead, if a group of you wants to carpool from becomefit that would be great!!

Sheryl, Thanks for putting together this fun hiking group. John, Kizzi, and I enjoyed Sunday's Arthur's Rock hike ... and really enjoyed our version of the hike at Soapstone without the rain!

Looking forward to the next one! Kris
