Climb

Life is about not giving up. The message of the “The Climb” is to show people to not worry about what you have accomplished. It's about the things that made them get there and the things they learned from it. “There is always gonna be another mountain I wanna make move” (Miley Cyrus). This shows that it's not about waiting for something to happen and not how long it can take them to get there. It's all about the journey it took them to get there. Everyone has there own thing to worry about in…

after that ephemeral feeling goes away, leaving you to realize with an inalienable feeling of dread. Sure you have everyone does it, however some people are worse than others. Author John Krakauer is one of those people he thought he would be able to climb the Devil’s Thumb by himself. This is severely different to Erik Weihenamyer’s approach, he knew he could not summit Mount Everest on his own. This being due to the fact that he is blind whereas Krakauer is not. The view points of the climbers…

Even though it is easier for people to climb Everest now than it was many years ago, people still have the possibility of dying. You have to wait for storms to abate, a possibility of getting high altitude cerebral edema/high altitude pulmonary edema, hypothermia, and other dangerous events. Even Sherpas are more in danger than they ever have been due to the many things they have to carry such as, bottled oxygen and medical supplies. Which can also add to the slovenly state of the camp sights,…

The Climb to the Top In the summer of 2011 I went on a big cross-country trip with my uncle. I was excited because I had never gone on a trip this long; but I was also nervous because I had never spent much time with my uncle and didn’t know him very well. We were going to go all the way from Nevada to Minnesota, a 1,700-mile trip to visit my aunt and cousins (his sister and nieces). We started by packing his truck to the brim with supplies. Along the way we would camp nearly every night,…

Why do people climb Mount Everest and expect people to clean up after them? People who climb Mount Everest should clean up after they eat or drink something, it is not a healthy environment for other who do. People who carry stuff up Mount Everest while they hike leave it on the ground and don’t pick it up so it is less weight for them to carry. It is not safe for the environment when there is trash all over it nor does it look nice. People should clean up because it is not anyone else’s job…

ASSIGNMENT #2: FORMAL ANALYSIS AT THE MET As time goes on we, as human beings, are always changing. Countries grow, languages die and new trends emerge as cultures evolve. However, as much as things change throughout history a lot can remain the same, or reoccur in the same way. Meaning that something like style, for example, often will take ideas and/or concepts from a previous time and use it again in a very similar yet new way. As the saying goes, “history tends to repeat itself.” This…

associate degree in psychology and write a book. A song, a quote and a few selected women come to mind as I venture into this path of attending Colorado Christian University. The song “It’s the Climb” by Millie Cyrus sings: “It ain’t about how fast I get there, it ain’t about what’s on the other side. It’s the climb” The song goes on to describe the journey we travel in this life, and the challenges we face, and our reactions to them; to discover that our faith in ourselves becomes stronger…

Why Climb Mt. Everest?! Why would somebody want to climb Mt. Everest? To me that seems like a really bad idea. In fact, 290 people have died trying to reach the summit. The last known attempt in which nobody died was thirty years ago! Plus, going through all that suffering just to reach the top and go down again? Not for me. Have you ever seen a documentary about how challenging that is? It is not easy, you have a 25% chance of dying. That’s like taking a spin the wheel with 25% and 75% and…

fact that over my many years of running and coaching, I’ve had so many experiences in the sport that have influenced me and made a difference in my life, why not share what I’ve learned with others. The book will be entitled: “One More Hill to Climb” with a sub-title of “What running taught me about life, coaching, and surviving at running camp.” It's roughly 30% complete and I’m planning on self-publishing it later this year or in early 2018. And, I might…
