Speaker Jen Loeb continued her story about climbing Mt. Everest. She talked about the importance of
getting enough sleep, eating right, and getting used to the altitude. She explained that the journey could take approximately six weeks to complete the climb. The climb is done slowly stopping at the different camps to rest and get used to the altitude. Once the climb has begun, you need to continue. It is very serious and you are using oxygen and you need not run out.
When you are finished you rest a day and then You Celebrate.
