If you haven’t felt the satisfaction of using your fitness doing something other than a WOD here is your chance. On Sunday, April 28th 2013 we are planning a La Luz Trail hike. We are meeting at the base of the Sandia tram at 8a.m. and carpooling to the trail head. If you haven’t hiked the La Luz, be prepared for a challenging, but doable hike. The trail is about 8 miles long; by the end we will have hiked from 7000ft of elevation to a little over 10,000ft. Not to worry, I completed the hike pre-CrossFit, survived the 18 switchbacks, and made it to the top, all without too much crying. Plenty of water is a must, as well as snacks. We can have lunch at the top and ride the tram to the bottom. The hike takes anywhere from 4-6 hours, so plan for a full day. There are plenty of great spots to stop for mini-picnics and scenic views. If you have hiked the La Luz before, this is an awesome opportunity to take it on as your now fitter self. Either way, it will be a fun day with great people.
