I posted here 2 months ago and I'm happy to say: I have results 🙂

Two months ago I asked if I could build any endurance by hiking a 140m elevation gain, 20 min one way hill everyday. So I did it about 5 times a week.

Today, I went hiking further, just to see how much I can do before collapsing:

600m (1968 ft) elevation gain

550m-->1150m (1804ft-->3772ft)

1h 30min one way

Might not seem like much, but keep in mind I was sedentary for a decade with zero physical activity until 2 months ago. I also did blood tests and found out I have a pretty moderate anemia.

BUT: Some perseverance pays off!
