Hello everyone. I've recently decided that I am planning on thru hiking the AT starting early June. It's a very long story on why I'm doing this but I have a few questions. When telling friends, family etc about hiking the AT, anyone else get "are you crazy?" "What are you thinking?" "What is wrong with you?" I've gotten no support with this decision. I am quitting my job and plan on going alone. My 13 year relationship is practically over and I feel completely lost and need some "direction." I've been wanting to hike the AT for years but have always made excuses on why I couldn't. I have this overwhelming sense that now is the right time. I need to just get away for a bit and challenge myself to accomplish goal. Not only am I just wanting to thru hike the AT but I plan on filming it as well. I have a side job, mainly in the summer, filming weddings. I become pretty good at it and I have always had a dream of shooting a documentary. I want this experience to be that doc. Any advice would be appreciated.
