I remember back over your journey some climbs you didn’t know you could make… and you did, some miles you didn’t know if you could make and you did… some challenges you didn’t know you could overcome… and you did. You’ve got this!
You are inspiring people more than you can imagine. Your grit and determination is infectious. You've got this girlie! We are thinking of you and praying for a continued safe journey. Godspeed Couch to Trail!
Renee, I can't speak for NH but I can for Maine. I'm 65, overweight and out of shape, with health issues and I go every chance I can. And if I can do it I know you Got This!!! One Day at a Time by putting one foot in front of the other! God Bless!
Are you seriously kidding me? There is absolutely no doubt in my mind you will make it to the top of Katahdin! I can'It imagine how overwhelming it must be, to do what you're doing, but you will do it the same way you've been doing your journey so far: one day at a time. Don't look at the elevation or even the number of total miles you have yet to walk. Just one day at a time. You've got this! Also, I probably have no right to say this because my longest through hike was 70 miles, but don't let the fear of what lies ahead steal your joy. Fear/worry does that. Take those thoughts captive. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I can't wait to see you summit that mountain!
Thank you for sharing your vulnerability about your anxiety, fears and struggles. You have overcome so much already. People who trained for this have already gone off trail AND you have kept going on. Adjusting as you need to, jumping ahead so you can get to Katahdin, hiking day after day in pouring rain, bouldering- and the list goes on. I am cheering for you!
No doubt the toughest terrain is yet to come. I got through it by reminding myself over and over that I had been training for 1700 miles and would never be better prepared to tackle NH and Maine! It wasn’t easy but I did it…and so will you!!!
Your one strong lady in my book. Just one day at a time that's all you have to do. You can do this. So proud of you and to be able to watch you hike from GA to Maine that's truly a blessing and amazing. 👍👍👍👍🙂🙂
Don’t borrow trouble. Just one step at at time. Don’t let your emotions betray you. Deal with the challenges that are in front of you today. Tomorrow will be there.
Couch… know this… ALL the vlogs I have watched of both male and female hikers who have reached the point you are in this video seem to have a emotional episode of some kind… so I think it is normal for you to be in that head space… Give yourself a pass… have a meltdown… it’s all ok… Then get on with it cause… YOU GOT THIS… 💕
Sorry to hear you're feeling a bit wobbly about whether you're up to what comes next. You've come so far, you've already overcome obstacles that have felled thousands of people - and you're still doing this thing. You are far, far stronger than you realise. I hope you can enjoy the next few weeks more than you are right now.
Those stone fences you see in the woods all the time were not built for the sake of building fences. The farmers would plow the fields and have to clear the rocks as they came up from the plow so they would stack them up at the edge of the field and they would make natural fences.
Hey Renee, you are still killin it. I would advise against thinking too far ahead on the trail. If you focus on just shelter to shelter and ease up the mind lol. I know its hard since you have little time until back to work. Just a thought. Where ever you time line makes you end up, you have hiked and impressive hike period. You are still a badass in my opinion lol. Take care out there.
Okay Renee, come back to your "why". You said you are here to do something hard. This is hard and you can do it. Take one day at a time. You know even when you reach Katadin your not done but you will breathe and complete after a respite at home and the journey will end easier than now.
Looks like those skeeters really did get hungry on the trail by the size of the holes in your tent netting, LOL. They must be Jumbo 747"s by that measure. You ignore people and just do you... you are allowed to have any feelings you want and to express them how ever you want to do so. I do not understand how people can think they can sit at a keyboard and tell someone else how they 'should' feel or that they are not experiencing what they are just because.. no reason or explanations are needed... I am also watching Frizzle on her channel Chasing Blazes and she has had some righteous meltdowns lately and she is right, the wet and the fright of falling and also the pressure to finish is overwhelming at times. I know these videos are behind where you really are on the trail and She made it to the grail mountain of Katahdin with her tramily the other day, yet her videos are still tears along the trail, LOL. This is okay and you have this girl, A sucky trail day is better than a sucky day in the office is the truth timelines being what they are you are here in the moment on the Tube and yet you are already halfway through those last 400 in reality.. hopping dimensions is what you are doing and that is awesome....
You most likely receiving these messages, encouragement, support with NH behind you. You can do this! Yes, it will be difficult but as your friends reminded you, you are just walking. Only think about the next step, not the next 4,000. If the AT was easy, everyone would be doing it. Remember why you started this. Be safe ❤
@couchtotrail2023 today was amazing and tomorrow another great day here in the Whites. Hope she is enjoying the few days with no rain. I am in the Mount Washington Valley. If me a shout if she (and team) need a lift.
Renee. 🙂. There is no doubt in my mind that you can do this!! I think everyone has these same thoughts during there hike! You have come so far and I am praying for you! You are stronger then you think! Sending you positive vibes! God Bless you and think Maine! You can do this! One step in front of the other! Hike On! 💪😎🙏🧗♀️🏕️🥾🙂
Rene, I don’t even know you personally but I pray for you by name each morning. I have watched your hike and you are amazing. The tough days will pass- hang in there. Who knows what awaits you on the morrow. 👍🥾⛰️

You’ve got this! It’s true that the terrain gets tougher, but it is also stunningly beautiful. Good luck!
Relax enjoy your journey wish I was there
The mental hike is sometimes the toughest part. You’ve got this! Think of how far you’ve come…. Don’t discount yourself. You’ve got this.
Renee, I can't speak for NH but I can for Maine. I'm 65, overweight and out of shape, with health issues and I go every chance I can. And if I can do it I know you Got This!!! One Day at a Time by putting one foot in front of the other! God Bless!

Love the stone fences. Lot of work for our forefathers

That’s a great perspective and a good word of encouragement
Team work makes the dream work, yes it does.
Your one strong lady in my book. Just one day at a time that's all you have to do. You can do this. So proud of you and to be able to watch you hike from GA to Maine that's truly a blessing and amazing. 👍👍👍👍🙂🙂
Nothing has changed. You are an accomplished
hiker.
By now you are doing the tough stuff . And realizing though it's hard you can do it!!! And having those amazing White Mt. Views!!!
You’re in control and you certainly have the ability. I know you can do it. I believe in you. 🤓
So awesome you are with other supportive hikers. Y'all got this! Blessings and Happy Trails! 🌈🏕🌄
Don’t borrow trouble. Just one step at at time. Don’t let your emotions betray you. Deal with the challenges that are in front of you today. Tomorrow will be there.
She is NOT borrowing trouble by talking about it. Don't say that to her it is diminishing in its very nature.
Thank you, Rich. I’m going to remember this. Good thought to hang on to for many reasons.
Couch… know this…
ALL the vlogs I have watched of both male and female hikers who have reached the point you are in this video seem to have a emotional episode of some kind… so I think it is normal for you to be in that head space…
Give yourself a pass… have a meltdown… it’s all ok…
Then get on with it cause…
YOU GOT THIS… 💕
You got this!!! Look how far you’ve gone already. You can do this
All of the stone walls are from the Merino Wool sheep industry. It was the gold rush of the east back in the 1800's. Very interesting.
one day at a time - you can do it - look what you've already done!
You got this, Renee. One day at a time! ❤
Sorry to hear you're feeling a bit wobbly about whether you're up to what comes next. You've come so far, you've already overcome obstacles that have felled thousands of people - and you're still doing this thing. You are far, far stronger than you realise. I hope you can enjoy the next few weeks more than you are right now.
As your Tramily said...one day at a time...one step at a time. Don't worry about tomorrow...it zaps all the energy out of today.
Sometimes it helps to let the tears out. You have your tramily and you will be safe together.❤
Keep Noboing strong. You will overcome each challenge.👍
That’s some nice H2O
Those stone fences you see in the woods all the time were not built for the sake of building fences. The farmers would plow the fields and have to clear the rocks as they came up from the plow so they would stack them up at the edge of the field and they would make natural fences.

Go with the flow you got this Renee! You can do it!
What kind of topo shoes are you wearing.
Renee, there are so many of us sending you strength, and we will continue rooting you on every step of the way!
Rocks are there for a reason. Mother Nature places them
Don’t doubt yourself. You have come so far. Nothing stops you now
Okay Renee, come back to your "why". You said you are here to do something hard. This is hard and you can do it. Take one day at a time. You know even when you reach Katadin your not done but you will breathe and complete after a respite at home and the journey will end easier than now.

timelines being what they are you are here in the moment on the Tube and yet you are already halfway through those last 400 in reality.. hopping dimensions is what you are doing and that is awesome....

She’s still in NH
Is she doing ok
@couchtotrail2023 today was amazing and tomorrow another great day here in the Whites. Hope she is enjoying the few days with no rain. I am in the Mount Washington Valley. If me a shout if she (and team) need a lift.
You can just stop all that talk. You’ve already proven to all of us that nothing is impossible for you. 😊👍
Those people you are hiking with don't seem particularly friendly, or maybe they are just camera shy.
One foot in front of the other....you can do it
Renee. 🙂. There is no doubt in my mind that you can do this!! I think everyone has these same thoughts during there hike! You have come so far and I am praying for you! You are stronger then you think! Sending you positive vibes! God Bless you and think Maine! You can do this! One step in front of the other! Hike On! 💪😎🙏🧗♀️🏕️🥾🙂
Rene, I don’t even know you personally but I pray for you by name each morning. I have watched your hike and you are amazing. The tough days will pass- hang in there. Who knows what awaits you on the morrow. 👍🥾⛰️
We are praying for her too! Lean on God Renee and he will give you strength! ❤
