Episode Synopsis

While the rest of us couch potatoes binged Netflix and drank beer during the quarantine, Mark Larson thru-hiked the entire Appalachian Trail during the corona pandemic. Being an experienced endurance athlete, Mark finished in 3.5 months (107 days), when most people take around 6 months to finish the grueling trail. The Appalachian Trail has been a lifelong dream of mine and I was extremely curious about all of the preparation, logistics, equipment, lodging, wildlife encounters, and physical strain. So I grilled Mark like an FBI interrogator until he answered every one of my questions. about Mark's journey here: https://rolliepeterkin.com/mark-larson-appalachian-trail And here: https://rolliepeterkin.com/running-ultramarathons-with-mark-larson/ ------ As always feel free to reach out to me on social media!
