I can't wait to meet you. Seriously. We are SO close! Anyone going to be at kickoff weekend?

Keep up with my pre-train for my 2017 thru hike, and the planned thru hike, starting in March, at escapingtheoffice.com
Don't doubt what your body can accomplish, it can do more than you think.
I'm honestly not sure when kickoff weekend is, so I probably won't be there......buuuuuut March 5th is when I plan to hit the Trail and, like you, I CAN'T WAIT! March can't get here soon enough.
We'll be at relatives on the 4th & 5th, so no kickoff for us. But, we'll hit Springer the 8th and I feel like a kid waiting for summer vacation...time is moving so slowly.

What is kickoff weekend?
Leaving March 15... if I can stand to wait that long. So ready to get out there.

Woo!
Staying in the Hiker Hostel March 6th, hitting the trail on the 7th! So anxious to get going!
was a Feb 20th guy but life happens and im prob starting the weekend of March 4-5. I'll see ya guys out there!
Also im stupid excited!
Darn, we're arriving on the 7th, all booked, didn't realize this gathering existed. Might look into small start date shift...
I'm not trying to be a "Debbie-Downer," just looking for clarification: judging from the speakers/topics they say they had last year, it seems this is all information a prospective thru-hiker should already be well-versed in. Is it more catered to those looking into a thru in the near future?
I will be attending the ATKO with my wife and will start on the approach trail on Monday morning.
