Everyday we have a choice as to how we will respond to what happens to us throughout the day. There will always be those unpredictable events, negative experiences or tough situations. You have a choice though as to how you’ll respond. Either you run the day, or the day runs you! You decide.

Have you ever thought about hiking a "thru hike" or taking on a challenge that would be both physically and mentally challenging?

This week I had the opportunity to be a guest on a podcast to discuss our 230 mile hike on the John Muir Trail which was very physically and mentally challenging!

Here is a link for anyone who wants to learn more or is interested in completing a long distance hike. Lots of prep and lots of fun!
