I challenged myself to do 12 5ks in 12 months. In the end it was the best challenge I have ever set for myself because it turned out to be an adventure than I had not anticipated on having. Anyways, I wanted to make the expereince more social. I know a lot of people sign up for races because of family or friends, but what happens when that person can't go and you don't have any body to do a particular race with you? I know, most people end up not doing the race in that situation! So, I figured c …

From Ice Age glacial moraine landscapes to the quartzite bluffs of Devil's Lake to the steep hills and valleys of the the Driftless Area, southern Wisconsin is a wonderful place to explore on foot.  There may not be any mountains, but the area has a lovely scenic value all its own. Unlike other Meetup groups, this is an ADVANCED hiking group, the hikes that I do are NOT suitable for the beginner or out-of-shape hiker.   Since there aren't any mountains or canyons in Wisconsin to provide a real h …
