Hahaha, yes! I love hiking! I have hiked everywhere there is to hike around Houston (it is soooo flat), and my favorite National Park is in fact Big Bend... As for preparing... At the moment I am training for the Houston Marathon in January, and my cross training days are on a stair climbing machine... Plan on continuing that after the marathon, but with a full pack so that my legs can get a little used to the extra weight...
When are you heading out?
