That big hill (but to me it’s a mountain 😬) is called: Oodi Hill. And it’s a popular place to go hiking. It’s almost 4000 feet above sea level. The distance straight up the “mountain” is 531 feet up. And baby let me tell you-I felt every one of those 531 feet (162 meters). Was it worth it? Yes. Over and over again. The cardio is amazing. My leg muscles were like WOW! And the air is so crisp and fresh. But the view when you get to the top is humbling. It’s so beautiful. You can see the whole city of Gaborone and beyond. When the trees start blooming in Summer (around Nov/Dec), there’s lots of fruit trees on the way up. Knowing me- I’ll be munching on the fruit on the way up and down. I’m going to eventually jog it. At least up and down one time. I saw mature people jogging the mountain 2 and 3 times up and down. Much respect!! But as for me today, I’m just grateful to successfully make it up and back down ONE TIME! 😆👍🏽 Coach Rocki Living is about celebrating accomplishments, giving yourself a Pat on the back for each accomplishment, and recognizing and appreciating the healing moment being offered to you.
