Fortitude: The courage to carry on against all odds.

Be that ice breaker; carry on until you reach your goal


Hiking the 20 miler is not liking running in a race on a flat surface.  It includes hills, trails, uneven surfaces, climbing and ducking. 

This was my first attempt at this course.  I finished it in 6 hrs, 7 minutes, middle of the pack.  Not bad for my first time. 

There are four things I learned: Fortitude, Endurance, Faith and Teamwork

Fortitude – having the courage to finish in the face of odds. 

Endurance – having the strength to accomplish one’s goals.

Faith – believing in yourself.

Teamwork – you can go further by working with others.
