Why are you holding yourself to goals you wouldn’t others? You have come so far. Whatever you decide you know you would congratulate anyone else that has accomplished what you have. The trail will be there next year if you have to get off. Good job and thanks for taking us along m. Appreciate you honesty and your joy. And… thanks to Eddie as well.

You are a woman warrior!! No regrets. Be smart and safe. You are our hero... we will wait for you and celebrate with you when you finish!!! Even if that is next year. We love you....
Always hilarious to hear the cacophony of commenters telling people to quit. This is a HUGE problem with our comfort culture. I love the fact that you keep finding a way forward! After seeing your pic on Washington some days ago, I know you at least kept trying to problem solve. Quitting is rarely the best answer unless absolutely necessary. And we are terrible judges on when the real moment is to hang something up. Our minds quit WAAAYYY before our bodies. Great job pushing your mind forward. The body will hurt, but it will be fine. 🤘🕓

Thank you. These comments showed up in studio and not in my notifications, so I am just seeing them now. Your advice is appreciated very much along with your compliments and encouragement.
You are an incredibly strong and determined person! Look at what you have achieved!! Be kind to yourself and take care of your body; it has taken you this far! If it can be done, there is no doubt in my mind that you will finish, but you are no less of a hiker if you have to adjust your plans. After 1400 miles, no one can question you know how to get it done! Wishing you good health and a strong finish. Thanks for taking us along on your journey.
You have inspired soooo many people with your incredible journey! I love your tenacity and I am thankful to have been able to watch you tackle the AT. I know alot of people are getting up off the couch and have the courage now to set foot on their journey wherever it takes them...and it is because of you! Thank you for showing what it takes to tackle the mountains, I believe you were meant to help others heal and go forward as well as yourself. ❤
Our health is our greatest gift, and I think steroids and pain medicines do more harm than good over time. If I wasn't able to hike without medication, then I would want to rest and recover until I could safely resume hiking without meds. Prioritizing good health should not be seen as a failure.

Couch, you are incredible! Please rid yourself of the notion that this trail has to be done in a prescribed amount of time. It DOES NOT matter how long it takes to complete!
I just rewatched your day 3 post. You learned SO much since then and have become so wise in the ways of gear and trail. Very impressed with your hike 👌✅

You have been doing an amazing job. It’s hard pushing through in pain, bad weather, muddy trails and high river crossings. Listen to your body, only you know what you can do and when you need to rest. Love Franconia Ridge, the views are great.

Look T the positives, all the amazing accomplishments you have done. You found something you love. So what if it takes you more than one year to do it. Rest, get healthy and start again when it is the right time. It should be fun not painful. Be good to yourself and be proud of what you have accomplished.
Finishing the AT will always include pain. It's part of the tax the trail collects on everyone. It's part of what makes thru hikers so special. They didn't let the pain deter them on their journey.
Been thinking about you all weekend. Glad you got steroids and you’re able to carry on with your tramily. ❤Congratulations on 1400!🎉 One of my faves The Boxer,Simon &Garfunkel.😊
Been watching since the beginning and honestly I didn’t give you or your husband a chance to make it past a month. But your perseverance and honesty and appreciation you shown throughout your journey is inspiring. In my book you hiked the Appalachian trail. Six months On that trail qualifies you for that distinction. Every mile you do now is extra. Enjoyed your videos.
My prayers are with you Renee. Only you can decide what the right thing to do is. But it never hurts to have a little help 🙏. Beautiful day in the Alpine Zone!

Renee your one strong, determined lady. ❤ But is it really worth the torture your putting your body through? I'd at least take a longer break before you go back out again. If you're weak and in pain you might fall and injure yourself far worse than you already are now. Plus you'll have to remember it takes a little time to heal and will you be ready and able for your new job? Don't be so hard on yourself, you are an amazing hiker. Sending prayers. 🙏
So sorry you are in so much pain and you are suffering. I am praying for you. I hope you are able to continue. God Bless. We live in NH and we know how hard the whites are.

Watching others on their hikes.. many in Maine, good news the weather is great up there.. one group is 50 miles from Katadin.. hope you get better routing for you..
Renee, if you pray ask the Lord what He would want for you. As a hiker myself, your not healthy enough to go on. The lungs and body are not in shape for this. Let it go, you can go back. Many others have had to stop. Grandma Gatewood was pulled off in Maine and what did she do? She went back a year later and did it. Do what is safest and not let your ego get the best of you. Not trying to be discouraging but safety and health can never take a back seat my friend.

Renee...take a few days where you are, not just one day. Sleep, rest, eat well. If feel better, then get back on Trail. If not, then summit Katahdin when you can and finish the rest afterwards. You got this.

Glad to see you were only off for a day. I didn't think you would take too many zeros (and I'd seen your photo on Mt Washington). Be careful and don't work your body too hard through this section. And I will continue to keep you in my prayers. FYI - The whites are my "playground" and yes they are beautiful and tough - I was on Lafayette a bit more than a week before you were.

Congratulations on 1,400 miles. I'm sorry that you're having breathing difficulties. Don't listen to others telling you to stop & get off the trail. You are almost to Katadin. However, please be careful as you hike. If you need a few extra zero days, take them. Renee, I pray for God'shealing for your body. And for God's peace, grace, blessings, & continued protection as you get ever closer to submitting Mt. Katadin.
Never ceases to amaze me how easy people in the comments would decide to quit. Thankful she is strong-willed and pushing through. The body will overcome if your mind doesn't quit. 🤘🕓
I’m confused on the miles I started watching later in the hike. In The title of this video it says 1832 miles. But yet you mentioned 1400 miles. Help me understand please and thank-you.
Renee flipped up, & skipped a2 states so she could finish before she has to go back to work. She'll finish the 2 States she skipped later. Not sure when she's planning to do that thiugh.

Hike your hike! I think it’s not worth the health issues. I heard the fires from Canada are causing high thorium levels in water. Your drinking that water. You have the damage to your lungs. Rest up! Congratulations 1400 is great 👍
I postponed my hike until next year. Let’s the streams wash off some of that pollution before I drink that water. Hopefully Canadas fires are done burning by next year. If not I’ll hike somewhere else. 😊

@@GabrielWood-tg7qr Hi Gabriel I’m from Tennessee. All is well here. I’ve been tricking out my little Honda Trail 125 that I bought last year. Put extra fuel cans and water can on it and front engine guard and foot guards. Hand guards and headlight guard. Oh and a longer seat for my long legs. I was going to postpone my hike until March next year. If it doesn’t work out to hike Appalachian Trail then their are alot of other trails or ride the Transamerica trail from east coast to west coast. A lot of things on my bucket list. Maybe the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon in my youth. Fishing, hiking and white water rafting. It was a hoot! I’m in no rush when I hike. I try ultralight but have a few items that take me out of that classification I’m unwilling not to take. Binoculars and comfort items and always take my bear canister. I can use it as a seat also. I built a trailer for my motorbike and carry my resupply in. Can also go to a campground and camp there. I have my own ways. Hike my own hike. Hahaha 🤣 I checked into the metal Thorium a radioactive metal that is naturally occurring. It’s mostly in undergrowth and wildfires of the magnitude of Canadas can put it in the smoke then fall into water supplies. I was on my way to hike going through Virginia when my brother and daughter called me concerned. I pulled over checked news. I was convinced once seeing the news. I guess Yellowstone is out of the question now? A lot of hiking in this area. I like visiting the caves too. Music in the caves is on my list too. Enjoying life nothing that goes on is going to steal my joy. 😊
@@GabrielWood-tg7qr Doing very well. Winding down for the night. I have to stay up a little longer to change the sensor on my insulin pump. I have a Tandem insulin pump for type 1 diabetes. It’s been working well for me for over 20 years. It’s an inconvenience at times but keeps me active. Allows me to enjoy life. So what have you been up to? Are you doing ok? Have any plans coming up? Maybe after Wednesday next week I’ll plan on doing something outside. Not sure what? Last week I visited my granddaughter for my birthday. Woo hoo! I might take a ride on my scooter 🛵 since it’s either been too hot or rained hard hard hard! Hahaha 🤣 it’s all good 👍! I should start getting into hiking shape again. Get on my stepper. Hike around town with a small pack and 30 lbs of weight. I have two new pair of shoes to break in. Start off slow for a couple weeks maybe two miles out 4 miles total. Throw on some ankle weights too about 6 or 8 lbs? Depends on weather. Can do squats anywhere and often. Deep squats! Well peaceful journey!😊
@@roberttrough6439 Thank you very much for your nice words, you sounds very interesting. I would love to talk to you; cause is my pleasure to meet you here, and am very happy. How's your day going over there? I was just going through the comments section and I came across your comments and profile, and it really got me attracted, that's why I decided to send you a comments . Hope we can be good friends, I would love us to talk Via Email.
What an awesome day you had to go across the presidentials. Your voice really sounds hoarse. Don't take any chances if you don't feel well. It's not going to get any easier. I can sympathize with you after you've come so far. Hoping the steroids will help. Happy Trails...Winkle
Sad to see you so miserable. It was so lovely to see you enjoying hiking but now you seem to be not doing that. Perhaps the time constraints were too severe. If you had had the time to take more rest days and keep out of some of the crazy weather you might have enjoyed it more and had less injury maybe?

Best comment I have read! Agree 100%!!! Most people would choose to suffer in comfort. Same people will never do anything monumental in their lives!! 🤘🕓
So glad you had great views up there. It's so beautiful!
Watching this at 8:45 am on 7-31. I am so sorry you are feeling so bad.
Been watching the most of the first bubble 💭 and your post time to time, trying to catch up, thanks 👍
Yay for 1400 miles. Im sorry for the health issues. I hope the meds helped. Great tramily. ❤. Keep trekking. 😊
Glad you made Franconia Ridge

Your health and body are the most important thing. You’ve already achieved a lot. Don’t risk getting worse.
Wow, the clouds may have rolled in but they also rolled out for great views on Lafayette! The Notch Hostel is awesome!
Renee, if you pray ask the Lord what He would want for you. As a hiker myself, your not healthy enough to go on. The lungs and body are not in shape for this. Let it go, you can go back. Many others have had to stop. Grandma Gatewood was pulled off in Maine and what did she do? She went back a year later and did it. Do what is safest and not let your ego get the best of you. Not trying to be discouraging but safety and health can never take a back seat my friend.
Hugs

Congratulations on 1,400 miles. I'm sorry that you're having breathing difficulties.
Don't listen to others telling you to stop & get off the trail. You are almost to Katadin. However, please be careful as you hike. If you need a few extra zero days, take them.

Renee flipped up, & skipped a2 states so she could finish before she has to go back to work. She'll finish the 2 States she skipped later. Not sure when she's planning to do that thiugh.
Renee, you are one tough hiker. Do your best possible but hike Smart. You only have one body.
Take care
Sooooo beautiful!
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love , and peace all over the world 🌏. I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust so as time goes on it will bring something great for us in the future, hope you don't mind? I'm Gabriel Wood from Brooklyn New York, where are you from if I may ask
Take care of yourself, your health is not something to take lightly. Hope you are feeling better.
Could you slack pack?
🙏🙏🙏
Hike your hike! I think it’s not worth the health issues. I heard the fires from Canada are causing high thorium levels in water. Your drinking that water. You have the damage to your lungs. Rest up! Congratulations 1400 is great 👍
I postponed my hike until next year. Let’s the streams wash off some of that pollution before I drink that water. Hopefully Canadas fires are done burning by next year. If not I’ll hike somewhere else. 😊

@@GabrielWood-tg7qr Hi Gabriel I’m from Tennessee. All is well here. I’ve been tricking out my little Honda Trail 125 that I bought last year. Put extra fuel cans and water can on it and front engine guard and foot guards. Hand guards and headlight guard. Oh and a longer seat for my long legs. I was going to postpone my hike until March next year. If it doesn’t work out to hike Appalachian Trail then their are alot of other trails or ride the Transamerica trail from east coast to west coast. A lot of things on my bucket list. Maybe the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon in my youth. Fishing, hiking and white water rafting. It was a hoot! I’m in no rush when I hike. I try ultralight but have a few items that take me out of that classification I’m unwilling not to take. Binoculars and comfort items and always take my bear canister. I can use it as a seat also. I built a trailer for my motorbike and carry my resupply in. Can also go to a campground and camp there. I have my own ways. Hike my own hike. Hahaha 🤣 I checked into the metal Thorium a radioactive metal that is naturally occurring. It’s mostly in undergrowth and wildfires of the magnitude of Canadas can put it in the smoke then fall into water supplies. I was on my way to hike going through Virginia when my brother and daughter called me concerned. I pulled over checked news. I was convinced once seeing the news. I guess Yellowstone is out of the question now? A lot of hiking in this area. I like visiting the caves too. Music in the caves is on my list too. Enjoying life nothing that goes on is going to steal my joy. 😊
@@roberttrough6439 Hi how are you doing?
@@GabrielWood-tg7qr Doing very well. Winding down for the night. I have to stay up a little longer to change the sensor on my insulin pump. I have a Tandem insulin pump for type 1 diabetes. It’s been working well for me for over 20 years. It’s an inconvenience at times but keeps me active. Allows me to enjoy life. So what have you been up to? Are you doing ok? Have any plans coming up? Maybe after Wednesday next week I’ll plan on doing something outside. Not sure what? Last week I visited my granddaughter for my birthday. Woo hoo! I might take a ride on my scooter 🛵 since it’s either been too hot or rained hard hard hard! Hahaha 🤣 it’s all good 👍! I should start getting into hiking shape again. Get on my stepper. Hike around town with a small pack and 30 lbs of weight. I have two new pair of shoes to break in. Start off slow for a couple weeks maybe two miles out 4 miles total. Throw on some ankle weights too about 6 or 8 lbs? Depends on weather. Can do squats anywhere and often. Deep squats! Well peaceful journey!😊
@@roberttrough6439 Thank you very much for your nice words, you sounds very interesting. I would love to talk to you; cause is my pleasure to meet you here, and am very happy. How's your day going over there? I was just going through the comments section and I came across your comments and profile, and it really got me attracted, that's why I decided to send you a comments . Hope we can be good friends, I would love us to talk Via Email.
What an awesome day you had to go across the presidentials. Your voice really sounds hoarse. Don't take any chances if you don't feel well. It's not going to get any easier. I can sympathize with you after you've come so far. Hoping the steroids will help. Happy Trails...Winkle
I wonder if the smoke from the Canadian wildfires contributed to your lung issue
Sad to see you so miserable. It was so lovely to see you enjoying hiking but now you seem to be not doing that. Perhaps the time constraints were too severe. If you had had the time to take more rest days and keep out of some of the crazy weather you might have enjoyed it more and had less injury maybe?
Yes, I definitely needed to take more time off. My body was very sore. Had I taken more time I would have had a strong finish
Yep, awesome vistas. You’re a trooper!

Your choice. Suffer on the couch or suffer on trail. Your goal gets closer every mile you go.
Best comment I have read! Agree 100%!!! Most people would choose to suffer in comfort. Same people will never do anything monumental in their lives!! 🤘🕓
This could effect long term health,if hiking is more important……..hike on ,I will not be watching. …..Gosh this is like drinking THE KOOL AID , 🙏
