“As a backpacker but aspiring old guy thru hiker I found this episode afffirmed a lot of what I believed but had not yet articulated. I liked the concept of defining the differences between seeking the challenge of mileage and making it an athletic challenge vs a stop and smell the roses approach without judging either. That impacts your gear choices and your frame of mind when hiking. Maybe it’s because I come from a triathlon background first but it made sense to me.”
