Well another hike up Pikes Peak is in the books....I beat last years time by over 2hrs....I was number 83 to reach the summit out of 450+ hikers....alot more than last year.....Thank you to all that supported the pikes peak challenge...next year i plan on matching all the donations i get, so all that were unable this year to donate, i know you were with me in spirit...but save your pennies and nickles for next year and see if you can make me broke! It is all for a great cause...alot of the money goes for unfortunate kids with brain injuries and for the prevention of brain injuries.....See you next year...and by the way anyone is welcome to join me! But you better start training now. I will even let you carry my backpack the last few miles...LOL....I hiked with 3 other nurses from the hospital i am at, Heather, Heather, and Mary...Mary kinda got a little behind but finished shortly behind us...We had a wonderful time.....Little Heather suffered a brain injury a few years back but still continues to beat us every year by at least an hour! Talk about determination.....And by the way I passed two olympic athletes on the way up and stayed ahead of them the rest of the way...they are the two taking pictures....thats when i passed them...suckers! Ill take any opportunity I can get...lol.....It was all memories I will never forget......
