Day 112
Mashed potatoes. Two peaks. Feeling incredibly weak today. The conditions were quite springlike and yet there is still so much snow. I had planned on doing this hike later in April along with a series of other trails, but given the fact that all my plans for March and April have been thrown out the window, I figured that I may as well do these hikes today and I’m very glad I did. Had I done them along with the ones I originally intended to do them with, I would’ve been really mad at myself. It was quite a lot more elevation then I recalled it being, and given the conditions I found myself slogging along at barely 1.7 mph all day. Speaking of mph, I’m over it. I’m really over trying to be fast and trying to prove to myself that I’m worthy of this attempt. I don’t like going fast most of the time because when I go fast I miss so much. I miss taking photos and videos. I miss stopping and really taking in my surroundings. And most of all I miss the whole point of this journey.
