Okay....I have found the limit of my physical fitness. I am proud, but I hurt everywhere and am about as tired as a man can be. The trail to the summit of Mt. Si is 4 miles long and climbs 3417 feet. My fat ass got up and down, but it was only because of summit fever and a dearth of common sense. A smarter man would have turned around much earlier. Thank God I am married to the wonderful woman I am. Rather than chastise me for my stupidity, she cooked me dinner and expressed pride in me that I made it. In the future, I will be looking for hikes that maximize my enjoyment of Gods creation rather than test the physical limits of the body I spent 20 years abusing. Just because I can do it, doesnt mean I should! (okay...who wants to summit St. Helens next week?)
