I am section hiking the AT and I am currently hiking in Virginia. I usually do 3-5 day hikes and am going NOBO. I am currently near I77. I live in the Knoxville, TN area. I try to get out once or twice a month even in winter. I am 62 and hike average is 12-15 miles per day. I work part time at the REI in Knoxville. My employee name tag says Mike H.
Thanks.

Cool .. you had a beautiful day to hike today!!!! I am a section hiker as well, live just a bit north of where you are, and hike similar daily miles. I have done all but 15 miles south of NJ, so I'm up the trail from you. But, if you want to hike out of order and do a more northern section in the next few years send me a note. Also, if you need help with shuttling when you are closer to the Roanoke area let me know.

Thanks for the reply. I have hiked 40 miles in PA because my mother in law lives near the trail. I have no problem hiking out of order. When is your next hike up north?
