Welcome to my blog where I chronicle my adventures on the Appalachian Trail.
A week ago, I announced my decision to take a career sabbatical to start my Appalachian Trail adventure. In just one week, this announcement has received a tremendous response. This has hit a nerve! In this post, I explore our relationship with work and share some inspiring stories of other AT thru hikers.
My Appalachian Trail adventure starts on Easter Sunday, April 9th, 2023 with a 630-mile train ride departing at 6:30 pm from Union Station in Washington DC and arriving at 7:30 am the next morning in Gainsville, Georgia. It’s the midnight train to Georgia … literally!
