You truly seem to love your treks in the great outdoors and thrive doing these incredible hikes. I never was that much an outdoors person though, in my youth, I loved judo and, at eighteen, was even the Southwest women's judo champion. I used to ride horses and go to the gym but, over the years, I became more and more sedentary. After my back surgery at the age of 40, I just sort of threw in the towel.<br /><br />You are truly an inspiration!RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8590336750289825897.post-39701923596001157992011-10-25T15:47:15.937-07:002011-10-25T15:47:15.937-07:00We never know why our bodies react the way it does...We never know why our bodies react the way it does. 70 is comfortable and depending on other factors, if it is windy, it might just be too cold for me.
