52 Hike Challenge

My efforts to get fit and see the world, have led me to some great places and some great challenges, my original goal at the beginning of the year was to do 1 hike a month since that time I have done more than 1 a month and when I stumbled across this challenge this morning I thought AWESOME!!!
I will use their tracker and go back and log my hikes, which I have shared on this blog as well as my Diabetes blog  http://changinglifestylelifewithdiabetes.blogspot.com/
