I decided to hike the PCT in order to see what I was made of. Since I just found out that I am made of approximately 5.1 x 10^27 atoms, I am pleased to announce that I will no longer need to engage in such an arduous journey to settle this matter. And if perhaps you were considering hiking for the same reason, you can thank me at the KO (which I am attending for reasons I prefer to keep to myself) for saving you the time, money, and general hassle of putting your life in the real world on hold for five to six months.

Because my hike budget has evaporated from unemployment I have to be creative. Instead of resupply boxes I might send a shopping list and address to various friends and family, inviting them to fuel my adventure.

An early post by Glen Hubbell that I found inspirational. I have decided I will overcome them.
"I have thru-hiked the PCT twice and the CDT once. Might hike out the PCT again in 2012. Not sure if any advise I could give will be very useful. A successful thru-hike is mostly a matter of deciding, in advance, to overcome all obstacles you meet along the way. With a commitment like that it almost does not matter what kind of gear you carry or what re-supply strategy you use." - Glen Hubbell
