Q:

What unexpected insights can outdoor challenges teach us about resilience?

I′ve always been an active person, but last summer I decided to take on a month-long hiking challenge in the mountains. I was so confident going into it, but by the second week, I faced unexpected weather conditions and injuries that completely derailed my plans. It was one of the most frustrating experiences I′ve ever had. During those tough moments, though, I found myself reflecting on what resilience really means and how outdoor challenges can teach us about overcoming adversity. Have others experienced similar setbacks in sports or outdoors? What insights did you gain about resilience from those experiences?
