I was wondering if I would stop being amazed by the views. After a month I can report that I am still gobsmacked by the beauty. Sometimes that comes from going to a new place or a new time (like last night I was on the top of Ajax for the sunset). Or watching a storm roll in--but the walk to get the papers just doesn't get old--it's really a beautiful place.
But what really takes my breath away is exercising up here. I figured after a month I would be mountain man tuff--maybe even able to run and jump like a 30 year old. So I set a goal for myself to run up sinclair road without stopping. It's not that long --maybe a mile, and not that steep--maybe 300-400 vert. Well I can report that after a month of trying I still can't do it. I have changed my goal from run to jog (or anything but walk). Will I ever be a mountain man?
