Hiking the Adirondack mounts, Coach sports for my kids

I am in the long process of trying to hike all 46 mountain peaks of the Adirondack Mountain range.  Each mountain peak is at least 4000 feet.  If completed i will be inducted into the "46er club".  I also help coach my kids' lacrosse and football teams on the weekends.  it is a great way for me to connect with my kids especially if i have been traveling that week.
