I'm curious of those who hike the AT. Is there a point at which your feet aren't aching at the end of the day? If you start hiking 10 miles a day and work your way to 20+, do your feet still hurt at the end of the day the way they did when you first started? Does the ache ever go away, and if so when? Weeks, months, never?
I've never hiked on a continual basis the way one would on a thru-hike. My feet are always aching after a 10+ mile hike, and I'm wondering does it really ever get better?
Thru-hikers please share.
Thanks,
Dave
