I think the diet is the key. We KNOW that eating that crap is bad for you. I wish I could have access to such high tech testing before I go on my hike and then again after. Heck, eat that diet and...

Oh, and there is the podcast FKT which I recently started listening to. Comes out every Friday so perhaps this week will have StringBean on it? They interviewed him prior to the attempt.
Don't know if this makes it "official" but it is on FKT as a new record. I am "guessing" that "they" will likely just verify the info but I don't expect there to be a problem with the record. Perhaps...
I realize Joe has to submit his "data/track/whatever" but how long will it take before this either gets accepted as a new FKT or rejected for some reason?
That's amazing to set such a great time.

These types of rescues makes me wish people would get charged for the cost of the rescue. unprepared for the time of year. :-?
That's a huge lite! You could land airplanes with something that bright. I recently bought a Nitecore NU25, 360 Lumens and I love it so far. I like that there are separate buttons for red light and...
So he quit. Then he got back on and then hit snow where he was postholing for miles. So he quit again (if I read it right). But now he is headed back out as he has something like 2.5 days left and...
Day 10 completed 625 miles. 163 miles to go. Day 10 was completed yesterday I believe as the video was posted about 2am (central time)???
At this rate he will finish in just over 12 days, or...
he has 2 support "teams." they provide him with food, water, whatever. supported also means you can have pacers. They also set up a tent for him to sleep. He's slowing down. The lack of sleep is...
After 8 days Joe "Stringbean" has covered 531 miles.
current supported record is held by Michael Versteeg at 15d 22h 39m 0s
Joe has about 464 of the 800 miles completed in 7 days! I had to edit because for some reason my brain told me the AZT was...
ticks don't like me so I have no advice
I watched the movie: A walk in the Woods. Meh. The book was much better.
I just read Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods."
It's a good read. I may even watch the movie now. I've never read anything else by Bryson. He's a good writer. And funny.
I have been noticing this as well in backpacking groups where people are talking about using these on the AT. I just shake my head. Mostly seems like it's "younger" folks who are all "tech savvy" and...
IMO - horrible way to eat. Unfortunately much of America eats like this all the time. There really isn't much difference between these packaged foods and what one would get at fast food places and...
Getting people to do a search if necessary, and staging resources, can be done at night so that they can start searching early the next day. So, not always the right answer. Though given that y'all...

Going from the footwear to zero drop does take time to adjust. I remember when I first went to wearing VFF I could literally feel my calves "stretching" after being in them for a few hours. But this...
Personally I think 3 weeks is the minimum, in my mind, to become a LASH. If you take a "standard" 2 weeks vacation (yes, I know, most people do 1 week at a time but many have at least 2 weeks/year to...
In this article:
Moderate to high-altitude is considered 4800 feet to about 6400 feet (1500-2000 m) above sea level
I was just thinking "this would make a great book title!"
In June we are going mobile and right now our first route will be east and then North to visit family and friends. Then cutting back to CO to visit our son before heading back south for the winter -...
Since we will be driving and have our choice or routes we will likely be able to spend a week along the border then! That's great. I will definitely factor this in on our road trip. I didn't really...
