Conquering Mt. Rubidoux

Mt. Rubidoux is located in Rubidoux, California which is right next to Riverside, California.

I've walked that Mountain plenty of times in the past year.  But since April, i haven't moved at all!!!  So it's no wonder that i walked up Mt. Rubidoux today and thought I was going to have a damn heart attack!! I had to stop 3 different times (all breaks were no more than 2 minutes) but I kept trucking & pushing and breathing hard! LoL. Damn, this was by far the hardest thing I've done in over 8 months!  But I'm glad i pushed myself and made myself do it.  I wanted to quit within the first 10 minutes and we hadn't even began the trek up the mountain!

I'm sure I'm going to be sore as hell tomorrow and I'm sure I'm not going to want to walk at all tomorrow but at least I did it. One small victory for this woman, one giant leap towards losing this weight! (Ha! I know, that was corny! :) )
