Every Friday the group takes the Twin Peaks challenge -- We try to beat our own personal records up this 2 mile straight up mountain. Last week I thought I was going to die when hiking and I had no idea how I was going to make it to the top again. Especially now that my knee hurt and my legs were sore. I had no desire to go on the hike, I was feeling incredibly lazy. But thankful, my friend told me "I hate working out too, but isn't that why we are all here." That really hit me close to my heart. That is exactly why I am here - I am lazy. And that is why I knew I had to do this hike.
I was scared I wouldn't beat my time or my knee would give out. But I knew I had to try no matter what. My body ached the enter way to the top. I thought my legs were going to give out any second. I thought I was moving so slow and would never beat my time. But guess what?!?!? I BEAT MY TIME BY 2 MINUTES!!!!!!! That was the best feeling in the entire world. Being on top of that mountain, watching the sun set, and knowing I just pushed myself out of my comfort zone.
