- 6/12 - even got a Peruvian massage after returning from the hike before jetting off to Ecuador. It was different than any massage I've ever gotten before, but it was wonderful and just what I needed.
- complete the Hammer & Chisel program
- I'm a month into this program and I love it so far. Its challenging and rewarding. Its taking me about twice as long as its supposed to because I don't devote 6 days a week to the program because I spin 2x a week and usually ski 2x a week plus I need a rest day every now and again.....UPDATE: This has taken a back burner, I suppose I'll start over in the fall.
