Click me: Mr. Softee Jingle

I HAD to get one of these on my walk back from Central Park with the dogs. This ensures that I go on my 8 mile run followed by an hour of weights!

Mr. Softee Nutrition Information — AAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! It’s okay; I will burn it off.

The Curious Compass expedition was a success!

Working on the reading but I sure can talk. Usually about sports, food, wine and mountains.

Extra days budgeted to ensure my summit weren’t needed and are now being put to good use: #Summer in #Mendoza. . . . #💦 #🇦🇷 #💙 #👙 #🏔 #🌞 #🙏🏼 #EarnedIt #WorkForIt #OutOfOffice #Aconcagua #Aconcagua2020 #Argentina #PoolParty #AndesMountains #HappyPlace #PinchMe

On January 12th at 12:20 p.m. I summited Aconcagua (22,841’), the world’s highest mountain outside of the Himalayas. Self-guiding was a risk: The expedition had several hiccups, far outweighed by glorious thrills, ear-to-ear smiles, and the breathtaking views of the Andes forever etched in my psyche. Looking forward to sharing more from this adventure, but for now it’s back to Mendoza (send me your recs) for all the 🥩 and 🍷, museums, girlie primping and time with friends, both old and new. Grateful for the hard work I put into my health; the dividends mean everything. Having been so low amplifies my appreciation for such highs. 🔥 in my ❤️ for this mountain, my birthday gift.

Day Two spent seven hours trekking from Confluencia out to Plaza de Francia and back to peep the south face of #Aconcagua. I stayed for a while hoping the clouds would clear but no joy. I did have some luck playing my own photographer. First wrench in the gears: This is a serious drought year and I’ve heard from several sources that there is no snow at Camps 1 or 3... a logistical issue that I’m going to have to figure out in the next few days. Need to make water for a successful climb! Investigating ways around this issue... The joys of a self-guided climb.

Day One was trekking from the #Aconcagua park entrance to Camp Confluencia. I am not a fan of trekking in hot weather, but it’s a necessary three day undertaking to get to Plaza de Mulas (basecamp), unless you’re already acclimated. It’s a beautiful walk. Mules do most of the work during this trekking phase - my pack is only 18 pounds. (There’s limited WiFi at basecamp, where I am posting now - so clearly made it to basecamp. So much for off-grid. 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️🏔)

2010-2019: Left the military. Ironman triathlon #2. French Culinary school. LA Times. Lost Maximus-Nugget 🐶. Travel Channel. Columbia Graduate School of Journalism. NY Post. Moved to France. Wine school. Three magazine covers. Loved and lost. Loved and gained. Traveled to dozens of countries and explored new cities. Writing. Took up mountaineering, quickly.// Sixteen surgeries. Two bionic body parts. Rehabbed severe traumatic brain injury beyond expectation, almost cracked in the process. Suffered physical pain like a champ. *Learned to be present. *Ended the decade stepping into another big adventure, no strings attached, nothing to prove - except to myself: I am capable, self-reliant and can visualize anything into reality. Happy New Year. Happy New Decade. Get after it. (Might post from base camp, might not. Shoving off now: Fair winds.) #aconcagua2020 #happynewyear

I used to envision flipping a switch from feminine to athletic, from girlie to savage. Truth is, I am always both. /// Exchanging the #👙 for trekking boots tomorrow but enjoying the 10 pounds I gained for this expedition right NOW... 📲 Still not the juiciest thing in Mendoza #🥩 #🤤 #bikini
