    Naw, I took a look at some of his journal and he just said he wanted to hike 30's...nothing about the record. I just figured, if he's doing 30's in the first 500 miles, the middle states should be cake.

    thats what i read a while ago. about the mountain lion eating someone in NEW MEXICO. question is would you rather get eaten at the start of a long hike or at the end of a long hike?

    IIRC, never a sure thing, he said he walked in the desert for an hour, and he covered four and a half miles. He figured if he walked that pace for 16 hours a day, it would give him 72 miles a day, and therefore could finish in a month. Soemthing like that. You could google or search for his original thread.

    He got quite upset when people pointed out that 72 miles a day in NH and ME was impossible and called them dream-killers or dream-trashers or something like that. Most here cautioned him, but a few sadists told him to go for it
