I head up to Seattle to link up with my friend, Seb. Seb likes to climb mountains. He offered to take me on a trip up Mount Rainier but a snow storm made us shift our plans. So, we decided to get a long run in and climb a mountain on the same trip.
This was my first time doing any mountaineering. It was such a beautiful trip. Washington is obviously so much different than California, then you add in the alpine and being above the timberline. It was such an amazing experience. I had not counted on how scared I would be. But once you get up there the only way out is down anyway. Enjoy the video!
Less than 3 weeks out from Amelia and I running 7 marathons, in 7 days, in 7 states!!
