Day 266

today, my friend pia and i took the plunge and signed-up for no-doubt, the hardest physical challenge of our lives, summitting Mt. Ranier in Washington State!! we are going with a group through the program summit for someone and will be fundraising for a group called big city mountaineers. the photos below give a good idea of what we will be doing - are we insane? yes! but we love it!!


we have about 10 months to train and raise the funds ($3800/each) and we will definitely need all that time to train, as we have to be able to carry a 40 lb. pack up the mountain in very high altitude (Mt. Ranier is 14,410 ft. high).


please pray for us as we embark on this HUGE adventure :)
