Ahhhh...nothing like the great outdoors! A month ago a few friends and I started getting together for hikes up at Quicksilver Trail in Almaden Valley. After a handful of group sessions, we scaled down into smaller groups and for the last month, Nicole and I have tackled the hills solo. We have come to meet each others strengths and weaknesses and have found that we are very incouraging for each other. We've even started to do a run/walk the entire distance. This date marks our 11th hike and after exploring 3 or 4 different trail paths, we found that we have two favorites!! The first mile is the same starting point and it is a pretty consistant 30 % incline....then one of the two other paths is flat and steady and the other is a good combination of incline, decline, flat, windy, etc. We've tracked it to be a approx. a 4 mile round trip trek. We are now knocking it out in a little under 1 hour. Wow, what a workout!!
And what a treat to be out there amongst all of mother nature's BEAUTY!! LOVE IT:)
