LOL, but working out and clean fresh outdoor air and sunshine is GOOD for you
The more you hike, the easier it gets.

Yeah i mean i wish i could get to the point where i was comfortable doing that, But next to all of those body building Canadians its really discouraging. One step at a time i suppose, not a 3.5 mile hike with a 3200 ft elevation. I just wish I read more about it before jumping into it. I was literally weighing out my options of calling a helicopter to save my dumb ass by the time i got to the top. Im only an American i dont have a lot of expectations to live up to when it comes to fitness. I still look good for my age and height so im gonna ride with that for as long as possible

LOL on the helicopter.
I hope to be an American amongst Canadians soon. Need money first...
But yes- start small with something you're comfortable with, and then work your way up in increments and remember that pain in the ass phrase people like to use so much: no pain, no gain. Another good one is "if it doesn't hurt, you're not doing it right", lol. And its true: you build the most muscle when you've done so much that you think you can't do anymore.
I got some of those "time-as-you-walk" shoes about a month ago, and made them my everyday all day even at work shoes. It's ridiculous how much leg muscle I've built since I got them. I've noticed the pain come and go in stages: searing, constant pain that I could likened to being on fire, then a mildly irritating ache, then it was gone. Mind you, this was over the course of about a week, I guess... Then the cycle repeats and more muscle builds.
The trick is definitely to exercise a little every day.
Sorry if that was too much. O.o

I did make it back down in the same day for the record. but it was only because i literally had no choice. Not gonna lie and say it was do my awesome perseverance and dedication. I think i tried to cried at some point but even my face muscles hurt too bad

Was there a lot of snow on the way? That would make the hike ~25% harder.

The hike might have been rough, but for a photo like this... probably worth it.

honestly, no. lol. I took in my opinion a better picture of south dakota sunrise without any more effort than getting up hours earlier then im used to. Which is still a strenuous effort. lol. I really wish i could honestly say it was. But i dont think i can

This is beautiful~ I think that hike of yours was worth sharing this photo with us, even if it was difficult. <3

Cool shot! Isn't this Wedgemount Lake, not Garibaldi?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Its beautiful!
But... I'm sorry, but whenever I hear the name Garibaldi, it makes me think of Babylon 5... *shot*

It's Wedgemount Lake, not Garibaldi Lake
It's a tough hike if you aren't an athlete, that's for sure.

Yeah i realized that after i couldnt change the title. I really wish i tried to speak to you before. Canadians are way more in shape and still warned me, but of course i thought they were exaggerating. I was literally crawling up the ice rocks on that last stretch. I just wish i was smart enough to wear something more then sneakers and bring a scarf/hat/gloves. United states "difficult" is a very far cry from Canadian "difficult". Ensuring Americans stupidity as well. I got to the top and had to weight out my options to contemplate if it would be worth risking freezing to death as long as i didnt have to go back down. I made it back the same day, without any dignity. You're my hero for doing that more than once

Surely, Wedgemount is one of the roughest hikes around here. I always go there with poles. It's unusually steep and just rough with all the rocks and roots.
You can change the title, just press "Edit"
If you can run 10K, you can do Wedgemount pretty easily

hahaha 10k god what a joke. i didnt think you could change the title, but im sure you're right.
