I've read all of the internet about how strenuous it is and I believe it! However, I see pictures of young children, elderly, and the not-so-fit standing on top. A group of my friends are going (some first timers and a couple return hikers) and I'm debating whether to join them. I don't hike that often and I wouldn't say I was at all close to be a professional. I think I am in reasonable physical health, mid 20s, and do cardio at the gym 3-4x a week.
Am I out of my mind even considering it? I've read articles on being prepared and I have that all covered. I don't mind being sore the next day or some blisters. I'm just wondering if I am physically capable of this trip. Any insight would be appreciated!
