Arrived in Rio, climbed mountain first thing in morning.
If you have followed my blog for a while, you might remember, that in Hawaii, I was persuaded into climbing 1000+ steps up a “hill”, which was a little harder than I had anticipated.
I arrived in Connection Rio at five in the morning and got some sleep. Hywel Teague, and old friend I trained with in Manchester UK back in 2004, is currently working here, and asked if I wanted to go up the hill near by. I thought why not, and five hours later I am now back in the house LOL. Once again, it was a little harder and longer than I had imagined and my legs and knees took quite a beating. So much for a rest day! :D
Tomorrow, I am planning to go training somewhere. I have stayed away from training since Friday to rest my knee injury, so I really hope it will be fine tomorrow. Climbing a mountain didn’t help much though :)
Anyways, I am excited to finally be in Brazil and to see what experiences and adventures I will find here!
Location:Estr. Sorimã,Rio de Janeiro,Brazil

Hey C!
From where did you start when you climbed this hill?
I´m thinking about doing the same when i get back to rio next month!
because it´s the big hill with a flat top right?
