(15,212 posts)...but Monadnock, Pack Monadnock, and North Pack are the only ones really close to me, so those have become my typical weekend workout mountains. It's a good two and a half hours each way for me to get up to the White Mountains. The two times I've hiked Mt. Washington so far I drove up the evening before to stay in a cheap hotel overnight, just so I could hit the mountain feeling fresh and not have to squeeze five hours of driving along with six or more hours of hiking all into one day.
I probably should try yoga, but so far I haven't been able to muster the patience for anything that requires much attention to detail and form. I've been doing some cross training, but I only do that twice per week, one of those times paying a personal trainer simply because I don't trust myself to keep up good form without someone watching over me.
