Time to Get Off the Couch

Multnomah Falls, Columbia River Gorge in Oregon. Yes it really looks like this!! Went on a 5+ mile hike through this stunning landscape and not even the constant rain could take away the beauty. I had been feeling perpetually unmotivated to get my arse moving (as in, working out). I can tell you this adventure has completely invigorated me. My calves hurt. My hips hurt. I can't wait to go again!!!

Product of the Day!! Vibram FiveFingers Sprint Multisport Shoes. My man mentioned these funny looking things awhile back and I read about them in the book, Born to Run (a MUST read btw!). We both bought them specifically to hike the Multnomah Falls area and could not be happier! WOW! WOW! WOW!  They are made to mimic being barefoot and to allow your feet to function as they were originally meant to. I could actually feel my toes gripping differently as well as feel other muscles I didn't even know I had in my feet. Not just for hiking but also running and a multitude of other activities. Seriously, give these things a try. They will change your life for the better :-)       $80 @
