Want to Climb Mt. Kilimanjaro for a Good Cause?

I did last year. Now it’s your turn!

Registration for Survivor Summit, a LIVESTRONG-partnered event I participated in as part of the inaugural 2012 team, opens today for its February 8-21, 2014 expedition…

This is an opportunity to fundraise $10,000 for cancer programs and services, and challenge yourself as you climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, the world’s tallest freestanding mountain and one of the “seven summits.” This time around, you’ll head up the Rongai route to the roof of Africa. And as a reward, you’ll go on a safari after the climb to the Ngorongoro Crater.

No previous climbing experience is required; just a good attitude and a strong desire to kick cancer to the curb.

You know this will be the experience of a lifetime. So go ahead, apply! Good luck!

My Austin Partner in Climb

It was so nice to catch up with my tentmate and “partner in climb” from Survivor Summit, Mindy today at Whole Foods! Even though we both live in Austin, we hadn’t seen each other since October. This time around, we didn’t have to worry about setting up our sleeping bags and sleeping pads in the shadow of Uhuru—we just ate good food and enjoyed each other’s company. Here’s hoping I get to see her again soon.

Seven Summits "Streetview"

Wired (and Google) have made me all nostalgic about the view from Uhuru, only nine months after summitting. I miss that peak.

We’re kind of a big deal! More important than reaching the summit, though: our team raised over $200,000 for cancer programs and services at LIVESTRONG!

On the Summit!

Reached the peak at 7 a.m. on July 2, 2012. My teammates and I had cold toes and fingers, but it was all worth it!
