Incline

 While my Sister was visiting we tried to exercise and eat healthy every day.  We had no-sugar weeks and helped encouraged each other to keep it up.  It is a lot easier to do when there is someone living with you that is just as motivated.  We decided to do the incline, which is a staircase up pikes peak.  You climb 2000' in one mile - sounds easy enough.  It is not - it is tough!  This was my second time and Elly's first.  We took lots of breaks and enjoyed the view.
 Wow the thrill of reaching the top!  I really enjoy doing that hike, even though it is hard, it is amazing to see how much your body can do.  The fulfillment of accomplishment makes it all worth it.  Plus, by reaching the top, it means you can go down the easier four mile windy path, that was nice.
Elly has muscles, even if you can't see them.  Anyone that can do the incline has to have muscles!
 We had fun just being together, making silly faces, visiting, laughing (which happens often when we get together) and taking lots of pictures so we would remember this day forever.
Oh, yes and I have muscles too!
