Since I can remember, I’ve always been athletic. Whether it’s watching sports, taking part in sports, or chasing my big brother around, for as long as I can remember I’ve had a passion for competition, physical activity and pushing myself.
Example – an anecdote: in the first few months of Pete and I dating we ventured out to Boulder to climb Mt. Sanitas. As we began the short hike up to the summit there was a gigantic boulder – almost 2 stories high – that I immediately felt the need to climb up. While Pete initially didn’t question my motives, I scrambled up to the top, took in the amazing view and then quickly came back down. Pete asked me, and I quote, “was that fun?” That question still eats at me today. It was definitely a loaded question. At the time I simply laughed, said, “ummm, YEAH,” and then proceeded to lead the hike up to the summit a bit quicker than he would have liked, heehee!
