With Big Breakfast, All Things are Possible
- Today I traveled 21.5 miles with 7474 feet of ascent. New daily ascent record, whoop whoop!
- A bit of own horn tooting here, but I’m kinda crushing it, or at least doing better than expected of myself! My legs have been feeling good and even after the long day today I was just exhausted vs have any scary aches or pains in my legs. They definitely are feeling stronger vs 2 weeks ago.
- Also nearly everytime on trail I’ve thought to myself “you’re crushing it!”, I’ve slipped on some rock or mud within a minute.
- I’d also like to attribute my success today to the awesome breakfast I had at Maine Roadhouse. 1000+ calories of tasty food to start the day is a hiker’s cheat code.
- Maine Roadhouse was an absolute gem of a spot to stay. The Jenns have created and run such an amazing operation and they truly are serving the hiker community. I’m finding that the hostels Maine have been some of my favorite experiences and have been spots where I’ve met some of the best people on trail.
Peace!
