Five years ago today -- it was a Wednesday -- I woke up at the Hiker Hostel in Dahlonega, ate a big breakfast, and along with a bunch of other excited thru-hiker wannabe's, piled my gear into the back of the truck for the ride to Amicalola Falls State Park to start my thru-hike.
Five years later I'm still digesting the lessons of that summer, and marveling at the way it helped change my life.

I think you will be doing this for many years to come. Might be time to start planning for the CDT or PCT.

I've got a PCT hike all planned in my head, just haven't worked up the guts to mention it to my wife yet.
