“I didn’t realize we were climbing so much.”
“Me neither.”
My friend and I were descending on the return part of a mountainside out-and-back hike, and it was a long, technical, and steep descent.
Neither of us seemed to find the ascent in the other direction particularly challenging though.
Doing hard things with people you enjoy makes the hard things much more enjoyable.
When it comes to taking on challenges, being in good company can make all the difference.
