Woman walks across the country on foot on 09/22/2011 23:59:46 MDT Print View

“People always ask me [why],” she said with a laugh. “At first, I was so urgent (to respond) so I just started to tell them all the feelings I was having but I realized that was tough to do. So I just boil it down to the short version: I just felt like walking. I just decided to click over to living in the actual moment instead of inventing all these fantastic fantasies for the future.”

Is it backpacking? No.

Is it UL? Nope.

It's just an interesting story that seemed (to me) vaguely relevant to hiking:

She's a thru hiker and doesn't know it.

Well, I'd be impressed if she had walked on her hands
