At 8 months pregnant, I'm not nearly as active as I used to be. I must be feeling some psychic guilt about it, because I've thinking a lot about friends and family members who really kick butt outdoors.
One friend on my mind these days is Andy Skurka, a fellow Duke alum, who I met when we both worked on the Duke Start-Up Challenge. Two years ago, he started and completed the Sea-to-Sea Hike, which was a major accomplishment that saw him overcome hip dislocation, traffic and bears!
Andy's now about 45 days into hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. A goal of his that gave me a smile...the one about getting in shape and using the PCT to do so! I'm not sure how the newborn would feel about that.
