A recap of my solo hiking adventure to Grays and Torreys Peaks in Colorado's Front Range. Stunning views, challenging terrain, and a special moment at 14,000 feet. The trek served as ideal preparation for my upcoming Kilimanjaro climb.

To be sure I am physically and mentally prepared for Kilimanjaro, I decided to train at altitude while in Colorado for work this week. I can’t wait to get back to the mountains.

Please consider supporting St. Jude through sponsoring this climb. Your contribution can spark change and offer new hope to families grappling with pediatric cancer. Together, we can help ensure that St. Jude continues to provide their lifesaving treatments and research.

The Guthrie family’s ordeal began with a diagnosis that is every parent's nightmare. What was originally thought to be appendicitis turned out to be much worse. Jaxon’s story is a testament to the life-changing impact of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
