A couple guys got sick last time (at Mount Everest), but everyone made it to the top. |
Because it's Valentine's Day, I've attached pictures of my wife and children to my boots, so with every step, I will have a pleasant thought of my wife and children. They are facing uphill, so it reminds me that they support me. |
I expect because of the full moon and the season it'll be pretty crowded. It's a good season to go: not too hot, not too cold. |
I think we've all lost some weight, and we've all been training. |
In my mind, its about 25 percent physical fitness, 25 percent mental grit and 50 percent just staying healthy in the altitude. The altitude is the biggest concern. |
It wasn't all that fun, but there was a certain euphoria about it. |
The dirty little secret is it's really just a long walk. |
There will be something (next). |
We were going to go this October, but my wife got pregnant. |
