Went for a quick 4.1 mile hike in some really fine spring-like weather. The lower elevation trails are finally drying up quite nicely now, so it is time to get some miles in, though there is still lots of snow on any trail with serious relief. I’ve also gone on a few shorter hikes lately that I haven’t been good at blogging about–there’s only so much one can write about walking the creek path. Nonetheless, the miles count.

In 2007 I am challenging myself to hike 1000 miles in a year.
That’s almost 20 miles a week, or about 2.75 miles every day.
Whenever I’ve mentioned this goal to friends, the reaction has
ranged “Wow, that’s a lot!” to “No problem! That
should be easy!” to “What, exactly, counts as a hike?
How long?” to “Cool, but you should give yourself extra
mileage for elevation gained” to “Does
jogging/walking/biking count?”...
