Today, Cindy and I climbed six hills of Mount St. Louis ski resort.  529m total elevation gain over the 8km / 2 hour hike.  On my first day at Mt. Kilimanjaro I wil be climbing over 1200m in six hours.

The steep hill climbing, without any stairs, certainly puts a strain on my calves.  I’m also starting to work on managing my nutrition throughout a tough work-out.
