    Mar 3 2021

    Rebecca Echols is a commercial manager for ceramic medical devices and is a hiking and running fanatic. It’s a good thing Becca knows “a guy” or gal in orthopedics because she’s done enough marathons, Ragnars , Spartans, mountains, and everything in between. She continues to challenge her body with new races and adventures. In this episode, she shares her adventure up Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest single free-standing mountain in the world. Be prepared to chuckle and visualize this epic hike as Becca retells her story.  You may also get some excellent pieces of advice and hike inspo from this spunky lady.

    • The guide service, Ultimate Kilimanjaro
    • A medication for high altitude called Diamox
    • Na Pali Coast as her favorite hike in Hawaii

  • Don't Beat Yourself Up Over 14ers. 5 Reasons I'm Not a Fan of Colorado's 58 and Why You Shouldn't Stress Over Hiking Them.
    Dec 29 2020

    It's been a tough year and who doesn't need a little pep talk?! That's why I'm here to encourage and tell you to stop beating yourself up.  You don't have to hike to a top of a mountain every time or even most of the time.  Spoiler alert: I don't really enjoy hiking 14ers!  In case you don't know what that means, Colorado has 58 mountain peaks that exceed 14,000 feet of elevation.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • 5 reasons for why I'm not a fan of hiking 14ers.  You can read the list on traildancer.net
    • References to Netflix' The Social Dilemma
    • Updates to where I've been/up to

    You can also see some pics of the remnants of the porcupine Cici found on a recent hike on my blog.
