So, I’m assuming if you’ve read all of our blogs and have gotten this far, you’re either our parents or you’re really interested in this course. My advice: take it, but let me tell you what you’re in for. You will be pushed and challenged to do strenuous activities over the course of four weeks. Yet, you will also be able to understand everything your body is going through. Such as: did you know you will grow more capillaries? You will bike 30 plus miles and somehow not die and still be able to walk afterwards. You will be given machetes and still return with all of your limbs. You will hike for miles and miles but the view at the top will always be worth it. You will learn the rules of biking with traffic and just when you thought your seat was high enough it’s probably not. You may or may not get second breakfast. You will learn that kayaking is actually all in your core. You will end up actually enjoying getting lost because trust me, you will get lost. So, take the plunge and don’t worry… it’s all in the waiver.
