Completing My First Full Trail Run in Bent Creek Experimental Forest
I finally completed my first full trail run! I did a 5.3 mile run on a mild, gravel/packed dirt/mildly rooted trail. The Ledford Branch Road Loop is shared by hikers, mountain bikers, and trail runners. It’s actually a 4.4 mile loop, but I accidentally took a wrong turn and ended up putting on extra miles. I had planned to stop running after 4 miles, but I was having too much fun with the run. I walked a little, panted a lot, almost stepped on a black snake, and sweated buckets. It was a blast, and I can’t wait to do it again!

Similar to a FUBAR. Nice to see you hiking around the Magic Kingdom. Did your luggage magically appeared. I hope you drank some Butter Beer at Universal. That was great! Nearly like an ice cream float. I tried to copy the recipe. Not the same. Thanks for the share. Nice to see the trip home was nice. Wishing you peace and good fortune. Happy Trails!

    I am thru hiking next year, and I want to set myself up to be ready for the after hike period. Do you think there is anything that can be done before the hike is over (or even started) to make that transition home less chaotic or easier to adjust to?

    • @cobwebroseonthetrail2447
      @cobwebroseonthetrail2447 25 วันที่ผ่านมา

      My best advice is to take a couple months off after your hike before returning to work. It will help you decompress from the hike. And don’t feel like you have to go back to the same job or even the same home (if you have the freedom to choose). Sometimes change is good, especially after you’ve been out on the trail. And don’t be afraid to reach out to your hiking family when you get home; they’ll be going through the same post-hike transitions and will be good sounding boards!

If you have a bad shoulder, I’d recommend looking at a zip up puffy so that you can put your limited ROM arm in first and not have to worry about raising your arm to get it in a pullover. I think a small should fit you really well if you do a zip!

For trail races, I've tied/looped a short length of thin cord with two cord locks to the back of my hydration pack and attach the race number to that.

      I loved it. Trail Days this year was such a different and fun experience compared to last year. Less rushed, more time to spend with friends from trail!

    Thanks for the review. Their aren't many Lightheart Gear reviews out there. Did it hold up well to an AT thru hike? Any issues besides condensation? Did you find that the awning feature came in handy? Was the awning good for increased venting during rain? Thanks again!

      Let me reach out to Snapshot and see if he can answer your questions since he used the tent the whole hike! He really liked this tent, and it fit his tall frame very well.

    Hi! I'm so surprised by your pick of the "flattest" section. I'm brand new to backpacking and my very first overnight was after hiking the first 5 miles out of PenMar. OMG, I thought it was so hard, lol!!! But probably that has to do with the facts that this was my first time carrying a fully loaded pack, I'm new to hiking, and I'm in my 60s. I know I'll only get better as I do this more often. BTW, I really enjoyed following your thru hike!

      Thank you so much! I’m so happy that you got out there and tried backpacking! That first hike is hard no matter where you go. I picked that section as the “flat” one because in comparison to the whole AT (think about sections like the Whites with lots of elevation gain and loss), it is “flatter” in the sense that you are doing a lot less overall up and down each day. Flat is really a misnomer for anywhere on the AT in my opinion. Happy trails!!
