My feeble attempt to climb Pike's Peak...

[Jaime]

My friend suggested this challenge as a motivation to read those books in my pesky to-be-read pile. I find it difficult to fit my pleasure-reading into my life, in between school reading, marathon training, and lots of hours. Let's see how this goes!

Good luck, Jaime!

I totally sympathize! For years I lead a very sedentary lifestyle but then last year I started becoming more active. Reading, googling, gaming, movies... all that stuff went by the wayside as I kept trying to beat my personal best and search for more interesting venues (I'm a hiker so for me that meant distance and challenging trails.) For awhile, the only book I was reading was a hiking guide! My TBR stacks became obscenely large (um, I'm also a hoarder)! Now I'm trying for more of a balance: exercising both mind and body! Good luck with your marathon(s) and with scaling Pike's Peak! :-)
