[pct-l] IN SHAPE?

[margepr@sunvalley.net (Marge Prothman)]

I agree with both Brick and Roy....from this "old gals" body I need to stay
in shape by walking a few fast mile days during the week or work out daily
at the gym or ride the bike for several miles.  I can get out of shape real
fast if I do nothing for several weeks.

  I heartily agree you need to go some distance on the weekends and build up
the pack weight.  Also, I think you need to be on trails that have uneven
ground with multiple ups and downs.
>From my experience the "cardio vascular" exercise is needed as much or more
than just plain strength.

Cheers,    Marge (the old gal)
