So, why am I trekking almost 2200 miles for 5 months? Why climb the equivalent of Mt Everest 16 times?
I want to:
- Share fellowship with friends and family in all 14 states along the way
- Forget what day it is for a while
- Complete a long-deferred adventure while I am still able
- Eat wild blueberries from a bush, not a market
- Rediscover the natural rhythms of life
- Find an epic view for the last of my mom’s ashes
- Eat 5000+ calories a day and lose weight
- Raise awareness of gaps in access to medical care for people and pets in Appalachia and help close them by fundraising for Remote Area Medical – RAM®.
