I'm happy to loan you gear that would assist and help you cut down on stuff to pack. See you sooooooooooon!Jennoithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03200703483030319387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-3739998725591304352013-02-18T20:17:44.227-07:002013-02-18T20:17:44.227-07:00If I didn't enjoy rest days I wouldn't tak...If I didn't enjoy rest days I wouldn't take them but I don't always feel like doing anything. Of course my options during the week are limited to darkness.Dannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201053516148787578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-46247166769195539692013-02-18T11:43:36.510-07:002013-02-18T11:43:36.510-07:00I love the term "forever fitness" - that...I love the term "forever fitness" - that gives me a new perspective from living with an engineer that always has to have a "training program" and wants me to be on a program!

I...Thanks for posting that—I like those numbers. I'm freelancing now (meaning, I'm more flexible on my time) and have a couple of larger trips I'd like to do. Thus far I haven't had a solid training schedule but now I have a better idea of what to shoot for! <br /><br />(Though with six kids, I doubt I'll see anywhere near your numbers. But I see I can do more regardless.)<br /><br />Andrewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-656090729412985792013-02-17T23:07:32.639-07:002013-02-17T23:07:32.639-07:00Although I certainly have a lot more flexibility t...Although I certainly have a lot more flexibility these days, my weekly outside time was about the same back when I worked in offices. In Juneau I had what for me was a fantastic schedule (2 p.m. to 11 p.m.-midnight, 5 to 6 days a week.) Even though I commonly put in 50-plus hour weeks, I could always get out for 2 to 3 hours in the morning at least one full day on weekends. In Missoula I dealt with the 9 to 5 with lots of night outings, including some rather epic adventures with my friend Bill that kept us out until nearly midnight. <br /><br />When it comes to carving out lots of outdoor time, it does help to not have children, and also be the kind of person who doesn't prioritize cooking, cleaning, or shopping.

To be fit enough to have a go at anything that comes along is a nice place to be.<br />Have fun in Alaska. I am sure we are all looking forward to seeing some amazing pictures and reading some stirring prose during your visit(if you find the time to blog!).
