Entry #3 on my May Journal Challenge is an easy one... in short, I'm proudest of myself physically when I do something I convinced myself I couldn't do, and mentally when I act with integrity.
My proudest moments since the Great Transformation are 95% hiking and 5% obstacle course races. High amongst those are the hikes I got to re-do after shedding the Old Me. And I got to do two of them, Iceberg Lake in Montana and Angel's Landing in Utah, with my sister.
Nothing like the feeling of burning quads and lungs with the sweet, sweet payoff of fragrant forest and stunning vistas. As I've said before, it still bugs me that I'm the slowest on the mountain, but I'm still there and most aren't, so fuck 'em.

I'm having trouble articulating my integrity victories. Hmmm..... will have to ponder why that is. Imposter syndrome? Unwillingness to dig deep? I'll leave that to another post.
