July 17, 2007: Who Loves a Forced March?

Tuesday, July 17, 2007

​We worked from 7:00-3:30. I helped Pippa make a rock water bar. We still aren’t done. I was getting a little frustrated because we had to keep resetting a rock and finding the right shape and size brace-rocks was a pain.

We walked to beautiful Rimrock Lake for lunch. 

Hiking is the hardest part of the MCC. All my attention has to stay on the trail and keeping myself walking. One or two five-minute breaks in over 3 miles isn’t my style. I prefer mini breaks - say 10 seconds after climbing a slope.
