Trek Dirty to Me: 39 days until it's into the woods to get the thing that makes it worth the journeying into the woods, but today I shall take a break and reflect.

With a week left in India, before returning to Indiana for the final monthlong March homestretch, I’ve wrapped up almost everything left to do here to get ready for my thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. Of course, looking ahead, it feels like this was just a warm up for a whirlwind 28ish days in my hometown of Indianapolis.

Trek Dirty to Me: 70 days until lift off and do you want to join me for a bit along the trail?

Come on, let’s play! There will be ample opportunities along my thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail during which you can join me or meet up with me! That would be awesome, an amazing chance to reconnect (or connect), get outside, check out trail towns, and more.

Trek Dirty to Me: 72 days until 2,193 miles of my life and I MAPPED IT ALL OUT!!!

I finished mapping out my 175-day trekking plan for the Appalachian Trail after four straight days in research hell. But I have it for you in spreadsheet form so that you can offer your additions, ridicule, desire to join me for a walk or a meetup or anything in between. Highlights include 100 days of camping and accommodation in one (maybe two) cults, a strip club and a nudist colony.

Trek Dirty to Me: 73 days until that walk, and I don't really wanna do the work today.

I shun planning during travel, but sometimes its necessary and sometimes Virgos gotta Virgo.
