These Boots Are Made for Walkin' is a pop song written by Lee Hazelwood and recorded by Nancy Sinatra. It was released on February 22, 1966, and hit No. 1 in the United States Billboard HOT 100 and in the UK Singles Chart.
As I shared with you a few weeks ago, I had purchased hiking boots while I was in Minnesota earlier this month. I finally started to wear them only around my own home to make sure that I was happy with them and that they were snug, and comfortable.
THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR HIKIN'!

I think that this was the week that I started getting SERIOUS about training for this hike. It was this past week that I first tried, and succeeded in climbing up my 25 story building from ground to top floor. Each time it took about 4.5 minutes. In that this this the type of activity that I had previously NEVER done in my entire life - training has officially begun.
