[pct-l] Time

[Ernie Castillo]

Let me offer advice worth dos centavos.
Anything is possible.
If you complete the 2,650-mile PCT in 2 months do you think you will find time to actually enjoy it?

> Hello fellow PCTers! I'm supper psyched about tentatively through hiking the PCT next April 2012. I mentioned plans to hike this an need for 4.5 months off. At the time he said no problem. I recently brought this subject up to check with him and he was shocked by the required time needed. Is it possible to hike 45 miles a day with no zeros in order to complete the hike in 2 months OR do most agree this adventure is worth quitting their job for? I want to embark on this amazing adventure sooo badly!
