Spring Break Exercise!

Hello, and welcome back to my blog! Instead of reviewing an application, I will give some helpful tips if you are ever in a place with high elevation! I am in Crested Butte Colorado for a couple days and the difference in elevation is already noticeable. Right when I got out of the car I could tell something was different. In high elevation, it is imperative that you drink LOTS of water. You can never drink enough within your first 12 hours in the mountains.


When up in the clouds, it is also important to realize that all of your movements will seem hindered. Your breathing will be difficult at times, and you will be exhausted after your first day or two. This is all completely normal. The oxygen level is different in higher elevation, so it is harder to supply your muscles with the oxygen it is used to. High level athletes train in the mountains for the extra edge it gives them!

Below you will find a short Youtube Video on Hiking in Crested Butte, and its different trails.
