Walk me through a day in the life of a thru hiker. The best and worst case scenarios. When you get up, how long you take to pack, what you eat for breakfast, how long you hike before stopping to eat a quick lunch, what you eat for that lunch, how long you hike until dinner, what's for dinner, how you spend the evening unwinding, any obstacles you may face during the day.
I really do believe this hike is going to be as much about the mental hike as the physical, so I would like to put my mind in the right place and really focus so that this goal is incredibly reasonable. Thanks for you time and efforts!
