Getting ready to go...
Well, its March 31 and I leave for the trekk to the Mt. Everest Base Camp on 4/14 at 1:35 a.m. Every day is focused on getting ready to go. Last night the altitude bed was set at 9,060 feet that gives me the equivalent of 14.5% oxygen, we normally breathe about 21% oxygen at sea level. Tonight I head up to 10,060 ft. Before that I head to the gym and walk about 3 miles on the StairMaster then another 3 on the tread mill at a 15% grade. Believe it or not I sleep very well! Looking forward to my departure. Last night I heard that I am going with two ladies from Australia who I will meet at the start of the trekk!
