Yet another record attempt! Nature Boy

[JEBjr]

http://www.natureboyhiking.com/ Appears he left Springer around 4am.

Nature Boy is a serious contender for the record. He has hiked the entire trail several times and actually trained for this endeavor.

[fredmugs]

He seems to be the least likely candidate I've seen so he'll probably do it.

[10-K]

Out of all the record attempts that have been floated here in the past several months this is the first one to begin that (IMO) has a chance of being realized.

Ms. Davis certainly, but she hasn't started yet has she?

Looks like a toothbrush.

Hell be at Katadhin (assumingly) right around my start date! Go natureboy

How so? He's thru-hiked three times and is an endurance athlete. Seems like he's one of the most likely candidates to me.

Good Luck Nature Boy! I'll be watching your hike closely, rooting you on!!!

5 Pepperoni pizzas is DEFINITELY more than 8,000 calories.... just saying. That would be equivalent to approx 133 calories a slice... hmmmm I think not. I ate a granola bar this morning that had more calories than that Maybe TWO pepperoni pizza's.

I love how his website provides his "time on the trail" in milliseconds.

I could say the same thing about Lone Wolf.

Surely Fredmugs must be playing the troll role today. We all know that LW likes to camp more than hike. Go check out the Daily Schedule thread where he talks about his schedule - "up around 7, start walkin' around 8. long lunch break around 11 then quit walkin' no later than 4. i like campin' more than walkin' but i can walk 3mph no problem"

How many times has LW thru hiked? At least 3. Right.

Has he run marathons? I think so. Doesn't that make him an endurance athlete? I think so.

Tell me one thing Nature Boy has done that LW hasn't exactly done or done something similar? And I've never met either one of them.

If you would like to put up some cash I'll take the over on 63 days. If not shut the hell up.

he walks backwards up hills on roads.
he eats iceing.

[Sun Blazed]

Nature Boy's going to do it, regardless. I maybe partially bias because he's my friend but even if that wasn't the case. He's still gonna do it. GO NATURE BOY!

[MkBibble]

[kayak karl]
