    Finally breaking free to do the whole shebang! Hiked in 2011 with a friend for 200 miles in VA. Starting relatively late so I will have to keep up quite a pace in order to make it to my sister's wedding in September. See you on the trail!

    Yes
    Start date depends on weather. I have been thinking about hiking the AT for a few years now so when I turned 56 I decided that this is the time to do it.
    Update:
    I had to postpone my hike due to a knee injury. Getting therapy and hoping to start again next spring.
