We are starting to train for our MAD trip. It is a year away but we need to get some local walks that will give us a work out. Saturday we went to Golden Gardens. There is a good stair walk with 272 stairs to the top. We did the climb up twice which give us about 1 mile and 544 stairs.

After, we went to Reuben’s Brews for a couple of excellent cold brews. G had the Crikey – a nice hoppy IPA and I had the Monty Anniversary IPA which was also tasty with lower alcohol (<5%). Good workout and one to keep in mind for winter.
