Tonight I was reunited with an idea I once had that seemed impossible. To hike the Inca Trail. It came to me as a whisper does in the wind. Slowly, but with presence. This idea, this undertaking is no simple path in the easiest of lives, however where mine is concerned it is doubly so. I am a large man, and not in height sadly. In order for me to undertake this, I estimate I would need a loss of roughly 100-120 lbs in a year.
That quick doubt you just experienced for me? Yea, I get it. I didn't say it would be easy. I think I can do it it. I'll the reserve the word "know" for a later time.
I started this blog as a way for people to follow me on this journey, to encourage me in the dark hours. More importantly, I started it as a way for me to reflect and keep going when all seems lost. What I'm suggesting will take a significant monetary and mental investment in addition to the massive physical horror that I wil endure just to get there.
Yet, here I am. Here I go.
First goal: I will not even consider actually going until I lose approximately 50lbs. I feel I need to accomplish this in 3 months. That's about 17-18 lbs per month.
Fuck it, let's go.
