I am going March 21st by the way Semper Fi coming from a FMF Corpsman.
I'm likely for 2016. Working my kid's way through college now.

Wow, I at first thought that stating to plan this far out would be seen as strange. I guess if it is, I at least have company. I will be retired. In my case my wife is very supportive though when I asked her if she wanted to hike it with me, she asked me how far. I said 2000 miles and change to which she replied " You're crazy, I don't even want to drive that far". In any case, I am aiming at March 2016 start, give or take a couple of weeks depending. I will start slow, partly because I am no spring chicken and partly because I know myself, if I don't pound that into my head I will start trying to go too fast, get hurt, and start planning all over again.
I am planning a 2016 northbound thruhike. I promised the wife I wouldn't go solo, so would love to connect now with anyone interested in coordinating/hiking together. Doesn't literally need to be side by side, but something that puts worried wives minds at ease. PM me if interested!

I'll be hitting the trail sometime early March in 2016. I graduate in December which gives me a couple months to prepare mentally. I can't wait, it's all I think about. All I'm doing from now until then is learning as much as I can about the trail.
I'm planning to leave late March 2016, finishing university is first on the list, and then working at my current student-job for a few months to get the necessary funds. Flights to the states are so expensive, it just adds another month.
2016 is my plan... let's see how that works.
2016 is my plan! Hope to catch you guys!
2016 is my plan as well...!
I was gonna go in 2017 but now im thinking 2016
Fingers crossed for heading south June 2016 and seeing how far I can go.
Planning a 2016 NOBO attempt. Gathering gear now, no date picked yet.
I am hoping to go in 2016, start date TBD.
I'm starting my NOBO hike a bit later in the year probably around mid May 2016 after I graduate from grad school.
