What did *you* do this weekend?
I hiked 25 miles through Bandelier National Monument, with a total elevation gain of over 7,000 feet. It took two days, 9 liters of water, a freeze-dried meal, and gorp. Tons of gorp.

I haven't backpacked in 3+ years, and this was my first solo overnight trip. So yeah... I'm retarded. But I set a goal, and met it. My next goal is to visit a chiropracter and a podiatrist. I have blisters the size of Rhode Island. Or maybe Maine...

What did you do? I hope you take some time to choose a goal that has only to do with personal achievement, something not related to career or recognition. Just don't be a dork and post it to a blog, like I did.

3 shot(s) from the peanut gallery.

Here's a tip: don't use pine needles.
