Sheri Strpko and I were looking to take a long weekend, girls trip; after much consideration, we decided on Denver, CO as it was central to many opportunites. We started on Friday In Salida, CO, at "Captain Zipline" - where our guides, Kelly and Randy, took us through the instructions on braking and what happens if we start spinning. Once we got through the intial introduction to "zipping" we were on our way.......there was some hiking to reach our starting destination, but having both gone through many kettlebell classes, the hiking and the altitude did not bother us.
On Sunday, we were going to hike at Rocky Mountain National Park, elevation to the top 14,000+. We knew we weren't going to go that far as you have to start out pretty early in the morning for that as you must begin your descent with enough time to make it out before it got dark.
Thank goodness we felt well prepared for our adventure from X Training with kettlebells!
