Hi All!
Looks like it’s Nopevember… The Dark Ages are once again upon us!!
Not only is the time change starting along with the the days getting shorter than the nights, but there is also (still) ongoing blatant disrespect from family (the drama continues – details on that BS). An incredible amount of activities that I was able to do are now on the nope list. One major side affect of this is, that I have not been out on a hike since my Yosemite Trip. My last hike was 9/18. 🙁 Good News is that Mt Diablo is coming up. Kinda concerned about my hiatus impacting my hiking abilities though. Looks like the weekly daily routine will be 5k – 10k walks/runs. Not sure how I’ll be able to train effectively for the 100 miler coming up on New Years. *🔥Sigh 🔥*. However a recent development may assist in freeing up some additional time on the weekdays. I’ll know more for sure beginning Thanksgiving week 🤞
Being somewhat sideline does provide plenty of opportunity to get myself motivated for the future when I will be able to ramp back up to my usual level of activity. I have used this opportunity to plan out some of what next years shenanigans will look like. With that being revealed, I now have a preview list for JB’s Fun Tracker for 2026 !!
Also keep checking the Crazy Hike List to see what’s been added and scheduled (hopefully I’ll get a change to get back to this). You can also use the link in the Upcoming Stuff section below.
