Hiking Cowles Mountain

We made it to the top! Top of Cowles Mountain!! Today was a beautiful day ! Perfect for hiking and playing with Mother Nature. 

Mt. Woodson hike to potato chip rock

A group of us set out to hike potato Chip Rock! It's about a 7-8 mile hike in poway. We started at the base in lake Poway. Hiked up hill really tiring and long uphill for about 2 hours. You then arrive at potato chip! I don't have a picture if me on the actual rock this time. I do have a picture. The line was really long! 

So Teresa and I took pictures on different rocks. 

Hiking Iron Mountain

I love to be active on the weekends. Part of me is constantly reminded that I use to be a fat girl, and that maybe I'm not as active as I thought. I feel SUPER STRONG HEALTHY!, but something about getting out on the trail, I start to feel not so strong. I think the heat got to me today. I love to wake up early and be active, but I think the old me mentality sometimes kicks in. 

    I feel like I'm constantly reminded that I use to be fat. And I'm ok with that I just feel sometimes, I hold other people back. It sucks to feel strong and then get out on the trail and instantly feel weak minded! 

Ugh,...... The struggle of a fit/ chunky girl

Finally made it to the top! 

Iron Mountain is a Beautiful hike! Make sure you bring tons of water. The hike is only 3 1/2 miles, but is a killer if your not prepared! 

Finally found some shade.
