I’m out of shape, and it’s embarrassing how far I have fallen. I’m working on pulling myself out of this mess.
I’m planning a section hike next month for Trail Days in the AT. 50-100 miles, but unsure.
I have been doing 5 miles a day on a trail by my house. It’s a loop, nothing strenuous. But after 5 miles my feet are done. I’m really sore. And that’s without a pack.
I’m about 45lbs over my goal weight and I used to be really active. I don’t remember being this sore and in pain. I’m 51 now, so age plays too.
