The Great Outdoors

These photos aren't that great of quality because I took them on my phone, but they are the best that I have...

The other day, I went with a mission friend hiking in Pleasant Grove, UT. We went on Battle Creek Trail. (It made me want some Kelloggs cereal, and no one I was with understood my joke ... it's sad being far from Michiganders.)

But let me tell you, it was difficult for me. I'll blame it on whatever I can - the altitude, never hiking mountains before, etc. Anything but the fact that I'm just really really out of shape. It was a lot of fun, but I definitely need to get into a more regular exercise routine and include hiking in the mountains as one of my regular training activities. But just enjoy the beauty that is the Battle Creek Trail:




P.S. I'm thinking about running a 5K in August. (August 27/28). I've never run a 5K before. I'm more of a play sports kind of person rather than a go for a run by myself kind of person. Maybe this will be motivation to get a better exercise routine. So please, encourage me to go running.
