It definitely sounds like that stretch of trail would fit perfectly into the Grind.

The craziest thing is that I am going to do it again!

WOW!!

I'm sooo impressed with you! The Grind is *incredibly* hard (I can testify--I've done it twice myself!) Some people take FOREVER to climb it, so kudos to you! I'm highly impressed and would totally give you an awesome high five right about now!!

*AWESOME HIGH FIVE!!*

You can high-five me on my facebook. ^_^

I'm pretty pleased to have done it. I know it isn't quite as hard for athletes like you, but anyone who makes it to the top has to feel pretty accomplished.

WOW, I love that thing. I've only done it 3 times in my life (2last year and one this year) and everytime, it's just amazing. I was really really impressed with myself to find out that it was a really hard hike AFTER I did it. I felt the exact same way the first time I did it, that 1/4 mark is so discouraging. Then when you finally reach the top, it's a feeling that only you can experience and words can't discribe. Props to you and anyone that does it. I think I'm going this weekend to "hopefully" beat my previous times.
