When people would say they loved seeing my hiking picks & wished they were young enough to do it I always recalled what one friend told me at an ALDHAWest meeting. When I asked him about his summers hiking he said it really beat him up. He was getting to old for long distance hiking. Nothing over 500 mles for him anymore! I hope when I am 73, Brice's age at the time I feel that way!
Well I'm 58 this year and talking with Annie we aren't ruling out a full AT thruhike in 2016. Going to do the 550 odd miles of the Camino in 2015 before we decide.
There were a lot that were older than me last year.
Go for something different. I'll help you plan a PCT hike.
