   “As the beach stretches out into the distance and the sun warms my face, my mind wanders. How many people finish thru-hikes like this, or the PCT, or the Appalachian Trail, on their first attempt? How much do their packs weigh? How much weight do they lose? Did they quit their jobs? Will I lose a toenail? When will I want to quit? Should I have an edible while I walk? What was that Angels & Airwaves album I’ve been meaning to listen to?“

     @chris thanks for the encouragement Chris, and for letting me share the adventure with you.

     Do you have a specific multi day hike in mind yet? That’s going to be a blast!

     @killyourfm Really enjoy reading about your adventure, it's inspiring. I actually started planning a 1-2, maybe 3 day hike in June. We live in a very densely populated area not nearly as beautiful as Oregon, so the long distance trails will have to wait and need more planning and travelling to Scandinavia. Norway and Sweden both have some amazing trails like the Kungsleden (Kings Trail) up to 440km / 270mi) - I've meet a long distance hiker on a trip to Sweden once who's been doing (parts of) this trail every year for 30 years. Anyway, happy hiking and enjoy the rest of your hike!
