I always wanted to do this, but what kept me from doing it is that you need a backpack with a water bottle, food, clean clothing, a raincoat.. or you need a crew to help you transport all that stuff. I wonder what option this guy selected…

Implying that walking a very long distance is somehow the purview of the privileged, is wild.

I hope you too can find the executive function, or tamp down the anxiety, or whatever it is you need, and one day can tackle a hill as tall as "need a backpack"...

Apparently you don’t walk much. I do. You need at least water. And a wallet to buy new shoes. And this guy would need a charger for his phone too. No, something is fishy.

On the contrary, I've even done it with a water bottle, food, clean clothing, a raincoat..
