Oberg Mountain – My new quest
December 6th, 2010 7:27 pm
I just completed my third climb to the top of Oberg Mountain in a week, and that includes the full loop, only this time I did so in excruciating back pain and on a very cold and windy day. I even shaved 20 minutes off the original time! Oberg and I are now intimately acquainted and I think this has become my new quest.
p.s. started workouts at 5 a.m. – added a circuit.

Congrats on your new Oberg climbing records — and despite pain. Thanks for sharing. I hope you feel the support pouring over the internet.

Hi Lor!
I don't know if you'll ever want to climb Oberg mountain again, but if you do I'd love to do it with you!
I'm procrastinating going to the gym tonight but reading the blog has given me the push I need! You have definitely put a whole new meaning in the term muscle 'soreness'… You are doing amazing!! Getting up at 4:30 a.m. to work out..awesome!!
..and I hear ya 'Spa Treatments'… revel in those well, well deserved moments!!
Take care Love, Mar
Feelin' the Oberg Mountain love! So sorry to hear about the back pain, though. Workouts starting at 5:00 AM??? That would never happen in my world. Seriously. I'm in awe.
Girl… I can hear the power in your voice! You're already transformed! Go with it… you're on a roll, even if you're rolling with pain! You're such an inspiration!!! xxx
Lori,

Lor,
This is so awesome to read! You are doing great, gaining strength and confidence, I just know you'll emerge where (and who) you want to be.
I'm so proud of you. Keep it up and know that we are all pulling for you (even Jack).

Lori,
Sounds like you are doing great, just like being back on the farm rising before 5 AM. You did it then so we know you can. Hope the soreness is getting better. Love Dad & Kathy
Hellooooo Schaefie!
I was calling to you while you are way up high on Oberg Mountain. You rock star you! Remember…
Ain't No Mountain High Enough.
Hey, that would make a great song…
Keep going girl. You're on your way to a healthier you. Be proud of yourself!
Love ya!
Be sure to let me know if I should be picking out a winter bike for you now that you are such an exercise fiend.

It's funny, not being a morning person I was more struck and impressed by you shaving off 20 minutes on your climb than but the 5 am start. That is saying something, congrats!
