How many steps is the Appalachian Trail?
How many hours of sleep did I get per night? How many calories did I burn? How many nights did I sleep in my tent?
And of course.. what you all want to know:
How many times did I get a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee?!

    Taylor (referring to 4 state challenge): "I didn't do anything that crazy this year." Also Taylor: I took a zero to run a marathon.

    14 Dunkin’ Donuts that’s nothing for 2500 miles in my opinion! But the 1 hotel coffee what where you thinking lol anyone that can do the Appalachian trail is a winner in my opinion. Have a safe new year!

    Thank you, Taylor. I only hiked half of the Trail this year because I tore the meniscus in my left knee after a slip and fall in the mud. I skipped the middle section and started north again in Massachusetts, getting hurt coming down Mt. Cube. Not knowing how badly I had damaged my knee (I was limping badly, but it didn't hurt that much), I struggled over Moosilauke and the Kinsman Mountains before the instability (not the pain) made me realize that, if it gave out on me in the Whites and the Maine Mountains, I could get badly hurt or worse. I knew this because I had section hiked the entire AT over 40 years, finishing in 2022. It was interesting to hear your statistics, because I basically hiked "by the seat of my pants" only marking the places where I slept every night in my AWOL guide (though I did use my Far Out guide for navigation, finding water sources, planning resupply, finding lodging, etc. every day). I had trouble with plantar fasciitis since Damascus, at least, and took a fall just south of Atkins, Va, which badly bruised my right thigh. I still have some trouble with range of motion in my left knee, and the right knee is beginning to hurt even more than the left one. I might be looking at at least replacing one knee, and, possibly both. I would still like to complete a thruhike, but that will be a few years down the road, and I will be at least 73 years old. I will do a southbound hike if I manage to get healthy enough to attempt it again. Thanks for sharing your story. Tinker, halfway, '23.

I have enjoyed some of the best hikes of my life this past year and start 2024 in the best shape I've been in for quite a while (at age 72!). If ever you decide to hike the Foothills Trail (76 miles in SC and NC), please let my wife and I provide pre- and post-hike lodging, shuttle service, trail magic, and resupply as a thank you for your inspiration.

It would give me a better portrait of the situation! Merci!

    It’s amazing the random stats you can get from a watch! I have a Garmin and get very similar type of stats from my activities. When did you start and end your session/activity? As soon as you set foot on the trail in the morning to when you left the trail or until you were ready to go to sleep? Just curious…Love the videos!

    Hi! Unicoi Zoom here '12-'13 LASH (379 days) along with my husband Napster '12-'13 flip-flop AT thru hiker (365 days). I wanted to share some of my stats because our style of hiking was so different from yours. Temp high, about 102 in Virginia ~July and temp low -10 in New Jersey ~February. My average miles per day was about 5ish partly because I'm a slow poke, and partly because I took so many zeros. Idk what my average was without zeros, but now I'm curious. My guess is somewhere around 11. Happy New Year!! The year we thru hiked we were near NYC at New Year's and we got to go to Madison Square Gardens for the 12/30/12 Phish show. It was absolutely wild to get to do that in the middle of a hike. Then we took the train back to the AT stop and the conductor looked at us like, "are you sure?!?" When we asked to get off at the AT in the snow and cold. Good times.
