      You can do it! I'm looking forward to hiking the VT Section of the AT this summer in support of ALZ.

      Thank you so much. I’m lucky to be able to re-hike 105 miles this upcoming summer.

    33 days of hiking -- your crazy girl! With that said I am so proud of you and amazed of your strength and dedication. Loved the video and narration and the views were awesome. Best of luck in 2023❣️

      Thank you Kris. There was no record breaking days. My goal was 27 days, but the heat and humidity really got to me.

      Thank you Theresa. It's been months in the making; plugging away every once in a while.

    Fantastic! Ohhh I'm watching this again for sure. WTG. Great intel for future hikers (like me I hope). Would you do it again? If so would you pick a different time a year? Love the tattoo. 👏 👍👊🇺🇲

      I'm section hiking the Vermont AT NOBO this summer and it will be a tough decision to go left or go right at the junction. We shall see. I hiked in August because it was the only time I could. Mid July would be a better timeframe, but I've got to hike when I can.

    Thanks for sharing your journey on the Long Trail. I’ll be hiking it this September. As a 63yo, appreciate watching that people over 30yo complete the trail. Although I hiked 15-20 miles a day on the AT, I understand that probably 8-12 maybe necessary. Did you gals experience any falls on the rougher terrain?

      I've only hiked over 15 miles twice. The LT is very challenging. I've heard its the hardest trail in the US based on mileage. Yes, I did have some falls, but not any that required me to get off trail. Just navigating how to get back up with my heavy pack on.
