Jennifer Griego talks to Chris Denham and Kevin Guillen about training for the Grand Canyon. Both Chris and Kevin have hiked the Grand Canyon rim to rim to rim almost ten times. They talk about how to train whether it be hiking or things to do in the gym. They talk about getting your body in shape and how the canyon usually requires more leg strength than cardio.
