Last workout before the trip
Tomorrow is a long travel day ... We'll celebrate Jon's birthday at 6:30 AM, and then I'll drive 4.5 hours to Bradley International Airport. I get into Reno at 8:20 PM. Today I have lots of school work to finish prior to packing, but before all that I hiked up Cascade ... 55 minutes and 2000' vertical ... Fantastic view of The Great Range. In addition to the Cascade hike, this week I have managed some good training, so I hope to keep up with Mark: 3 X 30 minutes on my rowing machine, a couple of short hikes with a full pack, two easy bouldering sessions, and 14 short and easy rock routes, one of which was on the lead.
