First let me say that I understand this is my decision to make, but I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions.
Second a little about me. I'm a 23 yo college grad who will be finishing up my Americorps commitment in May of '14. I plan on thru hiking Nobo in Feb or March 2015. I need to finish before grad school classes begin in mid August 2015.
Now the questions.
Am I putting too much of a time constraint on my hike?
What are some things I could do in my gap yearish (June 14- Feb 15) to make money, advance professionally (in the field of educational and social inequity) and to train for the trail?
Thanks?
