012/365 - My coasting hill

Nothing like a little weight loss to keep you motivated to exercise more. Today I decided to take a longer walk than usual. Not just any walk, mind you - one down and up the steepest hill in my neighborhood. A hill I normally avoid at all costs because, well, it is STEEP. Fun to drive, though. I do have to admit that I chickened out of doing it twice - I couldn't bring myself to loop back and go down and up the same valley at the end of the walk, but I started off with this monster. Go big or go home!!!

39 minutes, about 2 1/2 miles - not a bad way to get going on a Saturday morning, eh?
