As much as that title sounds like it belongs in the old
west, I’m actually writing today because the big kickoff for this year’s
Pacific Crest Trail expeditions (north to south) begins in less than a week!
You may ask yourself, “Why are you excited about this?” And
you’d have every right. After all, I’m not hiking the PCT this year. Hell, I
haven’t even gone on a hike this year.
(I suck!)
But, see, the thing is I really want to do the PCT. And my
goal is to do it within the next five years or so. To do that, I’m learning what
I can, getting my body into shape, and most importantly I’m getting my career
off the ground so I can afford to do the hike. (Pacific Crest Trail thru-hiking
ain’t cheap!)
In the meantime, I watch and learn from those who go before
me. I read blogs. I watch YouTube videos and I am intensely envious of those
who are doing it. You gotta admire someone who makes that kind of commitment and
puts in that much effort.
So, bravo heroes of the PCT! You’re all doing something
majorly kick-ass! And I’ll be watching and hoping for the best.
Maybe I’ll be out there very soon…
