No words can express what Eric Lindboe and I unexpectedly experienced during this “decompression day” following Fit Father Live 25. A leisurely stroll on a familiar path leading to the South Mountain Park trail system turned into a 4 hour hike when asking a stranger for directions. Jami Marlies, a local holistic wellness and fitness trainer (accompanied by her service dog “Remmie”) kindly offered to accompany us to one of the peaks on the trail system which we gladly accepted. What awaited was an unforgettable experience that has accentuated our Fit Father Live 25 journey to Arizona. We hope you enjoy the video.

I just wanted to thank you for taking Kevin and I hiking on the South Mountain Trails. We had such a great time and saw some amazing views thanks to you. Not being from the area we would never have found such a great area to hike if it wasn't for you. You were so enjoyable to be with and your dog Remi as well. She was so we'll behaved.

I booked this hike while trying to get back into fitness, and honestly, I was a little nervous at first. Jami immediately put me at ease and paced the hike perfectly. She explained the desert plants and wildlife in a way that was super interesting, and I actually learned a lot about hydration and safety too. By the end, I felt confident, energized, and really proud of myself. This was the perfect way to start my journey back into being active.
