What should you be able to do fitnesswise before you attempt to climb a mountain? I get this question a lot. Everyone's looking for a test. Should you be able to run a 5K before you climb Pikes Peak? Should you be able to ascend 1,000 feet an hour before attempting Rainier? Friends, here's the truth. There's no fitness test you need to pass before you climb your mountain. You should never let the fact that you're not meeting some imaginary benchmark stop you. However, because I know a lot of you are motivated by goals, in this episode, I'm going to give you five benchmarks you can use for different objectives.
