I Can Still DO It...

an overlook over a river and forest, with buildings peeking out between the trees.

Just as a note that I can still do it at my age. We hiked from Harpers Ferry to the Maryland Heights overlook (there’s proof) and then went all the way up to the stone fort!

6.5 miles, 800 foot elevation overall, but probably more like 1000 each way when you add in the climb down to the overlook. Only mild regrets the next day. My calves did have something to say to me…

Stay as fit as you can for as long as you can, it’s worth it. Whatever that means to you.

And stay away from you know what.
