Adventure Sports Podcast, Episode 350.

Snorkel is back on to talk through hiking and her new book, Long Trails, Mastering the Art of the Thruhike.

The reason I created this book is because it didn't feel like there were a lot of books out there that were designed for the person who just learns that the PCT exists or the Colorado Trail exists or the AT exists.

So this is meant to be a dream to execution kind of book.

All of those little tiny questions that you don't even realize that you need to ask or think about,

those are all in there to kind of walk someone through step by step.

How do you go from just thinking about long distance hiking to actually going out and doing it?

You're listening to the Adventure Sports podcast brought to you by 180 Tech.

We talk with adventurers from around the globe to bring you the inspiration and motivation

you need to get started in the outdoors or to keep you moving if you're already there.

Now here's your host,

Kurt Linville. This episode is brought to you in part by Bissell Bark Bath, the easier way to

bathe your dog indoors. For more information, go to Bissell slash Adventure Sports and be sure

Hey friends, Kurt here. Man, I have Liz Thomas with us again today, and Liz has been on the show a

couple of times, but it's been a long time since she was on the show.

Liz is the through hiking queen. That's what I like to call her.

She held the self-support Appalachian Trail female record for the fastest time for a long time.

She's also done the Triple Crown, which means she's hiked not only the Appalachian Trail,

but also the Continental Divide Trail and the Pacific Crest Trail.

But those are only three of the trails that she's done out of more than 20 long through hikes.

And Liz used all the knowledge that she gained to start helping other people get out there to do these trails.
