Hey Everyone! The Peaks Foundation has just launched their new website home, which is full of tons of information! It's pretty sweet, I've only just gotten to glance through it. Check it out!
Update on my eating: No fast food, I'm doing well on that! Dessert has been harder...definitely slipped up a few times, but it's a good goal to have. While I'm traveling for the next week will when this gets way more difficult!
I'm off to the Grand Canyon for a week. This will be an amazingly awesome, fun way to get some training in! I've never been and can't wait!

Why blog, you ask?
I, Skarbs, HIKED the 3 highest peaks in Africa in January of 2012, all to raise money for the 3 "peak issues" in East Africa: Education, Health, and Environment. East Africa is a place close to my heart. I know the difference that love, belief, and understanding can make in this beautiful part of the world. Join with me as I REFLECT back on this amazing journey!

Pledge: No Fast Food (or dessert) for 2 Months!
Alright folks. I'm not going to eat any fast food for 2 months. And I'm also not going to eat any desserts that are not homemade, which is going to be wayyyyyy harder for me. I gots to have me some homemade chocolate chip cookies sometimes, or if my roommate Kelsey makes blondies, then I definitely need to partake. But ice cream, oreos, all that good stuff is outta here. My madre made me feel pretty guilty about my sweet tooth when I visited home this past weekend....there were no sweets to be found. Zero. Nada. Except for dark chocolate, but sometimes that just doesn't satisfy the way 5 Oreos dipped in milk do. Know what I mean?
I will miss you, Oreos. |
