Hiking to the top of "Peparen"

I had plans for going out on the bike today to ride of some of the disappointment from Yesterday. However after a couple of meetings regarding the new house it was already passed 20:00 when I got home and I had decided to not do any training today after-all.

However, as i finished reading a goodnight story for Simen, Kristoffer, my neighbour called and asked if I wanted to join him on a hike to the top of "Peparen" and that was just enough of a "kick in the but" for me to put on my boots and join him.

The trip from home to the top and back is a 55 minute to 1 hours hike. However on the way down from "Peparen" we detoured and took a longer route back walking through the area where Kristoffer will be hunting deer in the fall.

We ended up with a nice 7.25km hike for 1 hour and 32 minutes, not to bad on a day where I had abandoned the though of getting any exercise done.

A big thanks to Kristoffer for inviting me out today. Today's hike has made me realize that I should do some hiking in addition to my bike riding in order to vary my training a bit.

  1. Was informed by Marit Yesterday that it is called Peparen, not Pepperen! Guess she is correct?
