descanso de agua
last thursday we met up with a friend of a friend who lives in rio. we hadn't met her before, but we clicked straight away and got on really well. she took us on a little tour of the city, which started early in the morning and involved a hike up corcovado mountain. i'm pretty sure the last time i did a proper hike was well over a year ago when i was in peru... in fact that's probably the last time i did any proper form of exercise. combining that with the fact that i didn't have any dinner the night before, or breakfast that morning, and i was nursing a hangover... well it would be fair to say that i found it a struggle. the whole trail lasted about 90 minutes, but they were 90 minutes of unrelenting uphill, and i mean really steep uphill. i refused to ask how much further it was to the top, as i thought any answer that was longer than 10 minutes would just demoralise me. luckily my stubbornness to finish outfought every other signal my body was begging my brain to give up.
