Some Like It Hot

There aren't any words to describe how wonderful the weather has been lately. It's been in the three digits the last few weeks and I love it. I feel like a lot people complain about the Arizona heat. I don't know why because it great. Actually, I do know why but those reasons don't alter my opinion any.

 

I've been hiking and running a lot recently. There are so many trails within the Phoenix Metro Area that it amazes me. I just celebrated my two year anniversary of living here and I can't believe I haven't been taking advantage of them.

Camelback is my favorite. I really like that it's a challenge for me. My goal is to make it to the top in 30 minutes (the Echo Canyon side). For those familiar with the trail, I can make it to the top of the second rails in just less than 15 minutes. Someday, hopefully in the near future, I'll join the 30 minute club. And when that day comes, I'll be ecstatic and jumping for joy. Actually, I'll probably be really tired and ready to pass out because I just hiked a massive mountain in 30 minutes, but you know what I mean.
