The Huts are by reservation, you need to reserve a place and pay for it. You can check their site out here: http://www.outdoors.org/lodging/ You are probably thinking of staying at Lakes of the Clouds Hut. It is about 1.5 miles or so from the summit and gorgeous! The huts are great since you don't have to hike in all your…

I've hiked Washington a number of times. Are you camping or staying in one of the Appalachian Huts? The hike is long, but it really depends on what route you are taking.

Just started today W1D1 done with really no issues. I am sticking to the plan as it is written, Monday/Wednesday/Friday. I'd love to hear what people are saying about the coming weeks!

Thank you both! I was looking at a race the first weekend I would be 'done', but I will take your advice and find one a week or two further out. Since this will be all outside running for me, I might be a little late due to yucky weather!

Thank you all! I downloaded both the apps that you recommended so I am going to see if I can play with them! Also, thank you for the advice - shoes. I will get some good ones! As people who have/are doing this are you really ready to run a race when you are done? I am thinking about signing up for a race for the end of my…

I saw that app. I think the first two weeks are free and then you have to pay for the rest. Why do you like using this one?

Just wanted to say that I have not fallen off the face of the earth - it has just been incredibly busy at work and I am hardly ever in my office. And today won't be any different! I hope to rejoin everyone tomorrow. But in the meantime, I miss you all!

Haha! Love the big hair Sims! I woke up to no heat in my house today and 25 degree weather outside, so I am out trying to get that fixed. I will be back at it tomorrow!
