January 13, 2010

Yesterday I walked 1.5 hours on stairs with my pack in the Allen Fieldhouse at KU. My calves are SO SORE today. I thought I was beyond being sore but NoooOOOooooo. Tomorrow I will attempt about 2 hours there.

The Lawrence Journal World contacted me and said that a reporter will be calling me this week to do a story on the climb. Cool.

My fellow climbers have all emailed each other to introduce themselves. One of them, Cern Basher, had an awesome article written about his upcoming climb. Cern is climbing to raise money and awareness for 22q13 Deletion Syndrome, a rare chromosomal disorder which his 10-yr old son Dane has. Dane can't walk, talk, and he has a major delay in his cognitive development. Only 350-400 families in the world have children afflicted with it.

I can just imagine.....won't it be a little emotional if we all make it to the summit, given the goals that we've personally met?
