[pct-l] going fast on the PCT



Whoever coined "Life is a journey, not a destination" was not a thru hiker.

I think our paths may have crossed on the JMT.  Are you the woman who is
married to a climber, had about an 8 pound pack?

> I just like going fast.  It's a challenge for me.  Hey, for most people
going 20 miles a day is fast.   I think everyone should just be positive,
and wish each other well on their journey whether they go 10 miles a day or
50.   
> I run Ultramarathons.   To give you some idea about who I am, my favorite
distance is 100 mile trail race's.  I like being out for 25-35 hours at a
time pushing myself.

don't ask.

> I ran/fast packed a Yo Yo last summer on the JMT.  I did it in 12 days 4
hours.  I feel I could of did it faster had I not been sick, with
Bronchitis and had totally blistered feet for 7 days.
