A friend sent me a hiking video via YouTube and I stumbled across this Auburn chick who was kind of cute who did the whole Appalachian Trail.
Homemade wanderlust is her handle. I would watch an episode per night before going to bed average time about 15 minutes. A slow progression travel log was kind of soothing And you come across some real drama. Has anyone here Done a hike of any impressive length like this?

He’s a little old to be out hiking. He needs to just chill and get paid at ESPN.

No hike. But, I did run a half marathon and have a 13.1 sticker on the back of my 2001 Subaru Forester next to my 30A sticker.

I once took part in a triathlon. Have a small decal on the back of my 2002 Prius.

3 weeks, give or take a day or two. Denali and Wrangell-St Elias. We probably averaged 8 or 10 miles a day. We werent trying to break a distance record and there were no trails.

No hike, but I ran the Boston Marathon in 2015.

No sticker on my car because I only subtly brag online.

Thru hiking the AT is a bucket list item of mine

One time i did a 5 mile trail... met a guy named Sponge... Sponge had a mut named dildo (well, that's what he called him)... great weed... better acid... ended the hike throwing frisbees off the side of a mountain while drinking Miller Lite

That's all I got

Great sightseeing with my brother who backpacks.

You should ask him yourself. Since LSU fired him, he's had plenty of free time for hiking.

I’ve ran two marathons. Other than that have done a few 5Ks. Never a ‘half’. That always seemed like the ultimate, “I want to do something but really don’t want to commit” mentality.

That seems a lot to Proclaim


But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
To be the man who walked 1,000 miles

Not sure about the actual length.

But the altitude...started the day in Tampa, flew to Sante Fe, made it over to Taos by early afternoon, and then hiked to Wheeler Peak

So sea level to 13,000 ft in the span of about 10 hours. Felt like my heart was gonna explode every step past 10,000 ft.

ETA: look, I know it’s not K2, but I’m acclimated to the Gulf Coast. That hike whipped my arse.

I walked across the US from Jacksonville Beach, FL to San Diego, CA.

BTW, that chick goes by Dixie and has also hiked the PCT.

I ran a marathon. I also completed 5 half marathons. My best time was 1:51.

I don't run much anymore because it's easier on my knees to do spin classes, lift weights, and swim.

About 12.4 miles. Didn't have much of a choice in doing it though.
