Looks like Kathy and I better stay in the slow lane when he flies by us. We'll be in Maine in early August when he starts. -

Here is how they do it. If you want to hike the AT with this on your back, they would probably be interested.

And on on his future daily blogs, he has the same text for each day that translates from Latin on Google Translate as:

It's filler...
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.
As noted in the link, there are many times additions, changes and corruptions from the standard text. Clearly some one likes bacon, bbq, etc. Clearly a carnivoreThe post was edited 1 time, last by EdDzierzak ().

Are there any updates on the Kaiha Bertollini claim?
Can't find the thread where we discussed this.Lost in the right direction. -
last I saw on her she was still claiming the FKT and she was heading out to hike all the long trails for the FKT. I think for her FKT stands for Fastest Known Tale."Dazed and Confused"

i think the crickets are telling us what we need to know.
she is now in a "relationship" as facebook puts as of a month ago. that'll screw up hiking a lotta times.
in any event, she made mens journal list of "the top 11 misadventures of 2016" so she'll always have that.

no posts on the FKT website since 10/1; basically since the administrator said no more "speculating posts" lets wait for her to provide the evidence. he's still waiting.

Speed hiking the Appalachian Trail is having someone tell you about the curve of a woman's hip rather than you feeling it yourself.
Datto -
it is the anticipation of running your hand along the curves of a woman. The out-of-breath exaltation of pleasing being beyond what is normally comprehended. How can you choose to avoid this pleasure?
Slow -- slow everything down.
Way down.
That is the key. Not to speed everything to the point where you're banging life.
Don't bang life. Don't bang the Trail.
Instead --- savor The Experience. Extract the nectar.

waste of time.
don't let the near hour long length stop you from listening if you are interested; she is done in about 40 minutes.
the main problem is that the interviewer let her tell her story. he says he is inclined to believe her. it would have been in kaiha's best interest (assuming she actually did this and wants us to believe she actually did this) had he challenged her. for example -- the shenandoah story was not brought up. there are plenty of arguments out there as to why this hike did not happen -- and they should been brought up and allowed her to respond to them. this interviewer will never be hired by "60 minutes".
asked point blank, she said she really did the hike.
at bit later she said it wasn't technically unsupported as people bought her meals when she went into town. she accepted them as she had no money.
near the end, said she turned over her records to the FKT board and they told her they were glad that she thot she did this, but next time wear a gps.
her final comment was that she was going to do all the long distance trails. she is going to start with the arizona trail. first she will hike it. then she will turn around and run it. lets hope she finishes before summer hits.
whatever you thot about kahia -- either positive or negative -- this puff peace is not going to change your mind.
edit to add: i was multi tasking while this was on so i coulda missed something -- but i don't think so.2,000 milerThe post was edited 1 time, last by max.patch ().
