    Default I Registered for my Thruhike Today

    As I perused the ATC website today, I saw that the thruhike registry appeared to be up, so I gave it a try. Success.

    I know it doesn't mean much other than another milestone on my thruhike, but I think it's a good way for people to spread themselves out.

    Nothing, not even bad karma. It's totally voluntary.

    I suspect you will be almost through the Smokies when I start. So, I hope you don't see me because, if you do, you will have had a serious malfunction. I'm starting two weeks after you and will be in no hurry.

    mostly, the registration is a good way for the ATC to get contact info so they can solicit donations

    I thought registering was for thru hikers only?

    I'm registered as well. May 15 starting at Springer. I can't believe this is really happening. Years upon years of dreaming and planning out a hike and now it's finally happening.
