Newbies gained respect

Took my Crossfit/Bootcamp/OCR/Ruck Coach and she expressed how challenging this was for her. She was carrying a 40lb ruck bag and it was 103 degrees. She reached her breaking point and gave up, turned around when she was almost 1 mile away from the peak. In our surprise, she turned back and caught up with us after consuming some grapes!!! I was soooo proud of her!!!! She was definitely challenged physically and mentally…almost gave up, but didn’t. Bagging peaks is a whole different ballgame!!!! She gained sooo much respect for us and to other hikers.
