The first walk – St. Jean Pied de Port to Roncesvalles

What a day in the Pyrenees mountains. It reminded me when I was in college and went hiking to the Andes mountains. Very narrow trails with the river along the way, just beautiful. The big different, I was 19 years old them. This hike today (17.66 miles), kicked my butt with an elevation change of 3500 ft, however, the big change (2300 ft) happened on the last 7 miles. It was brutal.

I made because of the good training and I want to recognize some people and dogs. I want to give thanks to my slave driver/trainer Dena Marvel and her dog Rocky for the many miles they put me through. I also want to recognize my dog Truly for the many miles she did with me. Special honorary recognition goes to my other dog Charlie for all the small walks. I will have not been able to do what I did today without their help.
