I paid my therapist a visit yesterday. I feel so much better! 😌🌿🦌

Scored a free 800 miler tank (Thanks Lisa & Tamara!), and earned my #arizonatrail belt buckle! Now I just need a belt.😭👖

I hiked back to where it all began, but before heading back home for a short break, I was stoked to spend a few days catching up with some of my trail fam. I felt car sick flying along the roads to #marietta bagging a peak and seeing the #bigchicken on the way. We also got to explore #hotlanta and the Martin Luther King Jr. #nationalhistoricalpark Here’s hoping time flies before we start the next big #hike 🤞⏰ It’s good to be home, but it’s only a matter of a few days before I’ll be itching to get back to the #trail 😑

...and we’re done! We wrapped up our Flag Mountain, AL to #springermountain GA section of the #easterncontinentaltrail ✅ and I am bushed! 😴 Shout out to all the hard working #trailmaintainers on the #pinhotitrail #bentonmackayetrail and #appalachiantrail 💪 So what’s next? More #hikingadventures of course, so stay tuned! 😉🤘🥾

Some #epic #signs and #funny finds from the road walks on the Pinhoti to the BMT! Never a dull moment. 😂

How #hiking the #bmt has been going so far!👌

Man, I glad that’s all over with! Wish I could say I had a blast on the #pinhotitrail but I’d be lying. This was probably the most mentally exhausting hike I’ve ever been on. Take it from me folks, if you hike it, do it in the wintertime! Continuing my journey SOBO on the #bentonmackayetrail and #springermountain bound! 🤘

Although I’ve tried to stay positive, the #pinhotitrail has been brutal! I can deal with the heat and humidity, but on the daily, we’ve been covered in ticks and sharp, barbed seeds, and have bushwhacked through a mostly overgrown trail. It’s been mentally and physically exhausting! 😓However, I have been pleased with the southern hospitality from the locals, and believe this trail would have been more enjoyable if we hiked in the winter. Overall though, I can’t wait for this journey to be over with! Only about 65 miles til we’re done with this stretch of the #easterncontinentaltrail and on to the #bentonmackayetrail to #springermountain 😅🤘

Goodbye Alabama! Hello Georgia! 177.4 miles down, 170 miles to go! 🤘
