Training

Okay, so I'm officially in training for my thru-hike.

Friday, August 05, 2011 I began working out.  I did 3.01 miles on the treadmill with variying degrees of incline.  It took me 71 minutes.  I did not stop! 
Friday evening, Tim and I hiked around Pinnacle Mountain.  I guess we did about 1 mile total.
Friday's total=just over 4 miles

Saturday I took a zero.

Sunday I did one mile in 25 minutes with alternating inclines.

Monday (today) I swam in the pool for about an hour.  I also walked barefoot on hot cement several times so I am toughing up my feet.Ow.

I might go to the gym tonight and do a mile on the treadmill.  We'll see.

Plans for my 2012 Thru-Hike on the AT - NOBO

Okay, it's settled, I am going to hike the AT!!!  The AT is the Appalachian Trail and it goes from Springer Mountain, Georgia to Mount Katahdin Maine.  A NOBO is hiker slang for northbound.


The Appalachian Trail is over 2,000 miles long.
