I hiked up Timp yesterday because I did not have to go to work. I was a little nervous because I was hiking by myself. On the way I up I passed nine groups. ( I counted) It took me two and a half hours to make it to the top. Once I was on the top I took a twenty minute break to eat lunch. I decided I would jog down the mountain, it took me a total of an hour and forty minutes. Total time for the hike was four and a half hours. I tripped 3 times coming down the mountain. I was happy no one was around when I completed biffed it on my face. I think that I need a little more trail practice before I go into trail running. I could be a possible disaster. I loved this hike! I want to do it again faster next week. I wore my SGM shirt from a few years ago, and people were making all sorts of comments about the marathon as I hiked. I thought it was fun as I passed groups on the way up and on the way back down, before they would make it to the top.
