My previous username on the 12WBT forums was "s4076612" - memorable, right? It was my student number at university, and I figured there was no way I'd forget it.
Well, I decided to change it to this round - so I now have the somewhat-self-motivational username "Trailblazer" - and I've chosen this for a reason.
My fiance and I have booked an apparently somewhat unorthodox honeymoon - instead of lying on a beach somewhere (which does have it's own appeal...), we have decided to go to South America. We're a pair of nerds (after all, we met at university when I was doing my undergraduate science degree and he was studying engineering), so where better to go than on a cruise around the Galapagos.

Gosh, what an awful place to go... we'll be suffering... |
When we decided this, we figured why would you fly all that way, and not check out some other sights? I was feeling ambitious, and I agreed to hike the Inca Trail. So now me, the girl who has previously posted about how she's never been able to run for longer than 8 minutes, has agreed to a four day hike at altitude in Peru.

It's a decent hike - but what a sight at the end! |
So my goals for round 2 are not just weight loss - not only do I want to shed some kgs to look fabulous in my wedding dress, but I also want to increase my fitness so I don't die on the hike! My username has been chosen to reflect my goal - I am going to blaze that trail, and I'm going to enjoy every minute of it because I'm doing the hard yards now.
