It's July 9th. I opened up my calendar/to do list today to see that I had written "one month until the Grouse Grind". Twenty nine days until I have to lug my fat ass up that damn mountain again. If I am lucky I will still be complaining ten years from now about doing my birthday "grind". It might be a good idea to keep working out after the twenty nine days are up so every year it gets easier? I will ultimately make that decision after this years climb. If all this working out does not make it easier I am officially going back to beer. Beer is the new yoga! I'm almost positive.
