I had my garmin on and I think the fastest that we went up the mountain was a whoopin 2.1 mph. The whole way up there isnt even a slight little down hill. I stayed behind parker and went his little pace. There were times that he couldnt even make it up. So I had to lift him to the next section. Considering he is 5 2.1 isnt a bad pace going straight up a side of a mountain.
We made it to the vista and the boys played for awhile. Then it was time to take the plunge to come home. We came home the way through the mountains. It actually was not that bad. Way easier then if we would of had to turn around and went back the way we came. The kids ran all of the way down the mountain. My favorite part was when Parker got ahead and then he fell, and I could hear screaming. I asked Xavier who is that, he told me Parker. by the time we got to parker, he told us that he fell. And then he started running again. he was glad that nothing was broke on him. Then we are taking corners down the mountain and we would go a certain way and Parker would be like "hey we just went this way". Then we would round the next corner walk and take another corner and he would say again "hey we just went this way". He didnt understand that we were weaving our way down to get back to the tracks. Next time I want to take Brayden and Xander and see how they do with just me. I bet we could run the whole time. It was such an awesome day to be up there. I got up to 7.9 mph going down the mountain. It was awesome being able to do things i haven't done in a really long time.
I also got on the scale and I was down another pound. I was pretty happy about that.
