It’s been 1 week since I busted my ankle. Today would have been day 4 of my attempt to thru hike the PCT. Ankle is definitely swelling again but over all I think I should be good to leave next Sunday. Super inspired by #TommyCaldwell and #KevinJorgeson after watching #TheDawnWall 💪 #PCT2019 #training #hiking #weightlossjourney (at Peters Canyon Regional Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuzUVQGnHbQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z83riu2yhaip

31/?: today started out great but maybe Steve’s ominous smile was foreshadowing what would soon follow after this picture was taken as we headed back after making it to #BlackStarCanyonFalls. Coming down a large boulder, I slipped and fell and twisted my left ankle. It didn’t feel too bad at first but after the 4+ mile journey back to the truck, it really took an additional beating and it’s pretty hard to even stand on now let alone walk or hike. Hopefully this won’t cause too much of a delay 😬🙏 #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike #getyourhearton #weightlossjourney Also Forgot to turn strava off again 🤦‍♀️... not my day lol (at Black Star Canyon) https://www.instagram.com/p/Buh41uKHE0o/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p38xn3vkrhnj

29/34: FIVE DAYS BEFORE I LEAVE! 🤯 time has flown by. Physically I’m way more ready than I thought I’d be by this point. Mentally... I’m not going to lie, the snow has me shook 🥶. Also, I just looked at the weather for next Wednesday and it’s supposed to be raining the first two days of my journey lol 🤦‍♀️ Its a good thing I’ve had some great practice hikes in the rain... setting up camp will be another story though 😬 #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike #thruhikeattempt #GetYourHeartOn #weightlossjourney (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bub7vhZHim0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b5avkh1hln3k

26/34: had a great weekend, back to the trail grind today. Slipped on the dry loose dirt coming down a steep hill but luckily just got a scratch on my knee. 8 days to go! #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike #peterscanyon (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUKu5YnIu9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rws7gp0td39j

24/34: and on the 24th day I rested... took a “zero” day today. Spent last night at Moro Campgrounds in Crystal Cove for another gear test. I need long johns!!! Woke up to an incredible sunrise but the company was the best part. #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike #getyourhearton (at El Moro Campgrounds (Crystal Cove State Park)) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuPJue9n9S-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1olvkq69lggtv

23/34: feeling like a rock star today. I can’t believe I leave in less that two weeks! I’m going to try to get a weigh in to you guys soon, I think I hit my goal of getting under 300 lbs but I need to verify. Stay tuned. #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike #getyourhearton (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuMTLlDnYdp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1atc4orl17rm2

22/34: Great weather today so I decided to get max distance and elevation out of Peters Canyon. Calves are doing better but feet are definitely sore today. #PCT2019 #training #hiking #pct #thruhike #GetYourHeartOn (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuKKOYOHS8Y/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=drfd0gqqfula

21/34: 3 weeks of hiking and TWO WEEKS until I leave! I can’t thank @jessetporter enough for the incredible support he continues to give me! Did a short hike today letting my calves rest up a bit. I saw a lot of hikers out today with full packs which was awesome. #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuHIenEH1p0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17c1d6eoshysb

19/34: I’ve been carrying the full pack the last few days and my calves are not happy lol but besides that I feel great and I become more confident that I can finish the PCT after every hike. #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike (at Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuC35LNHyba/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=no0ifqyivbm5

15/34: I’m waking up on time but man am i slow to get out of the house. Got a late start again because I was just moving so slow. Forgot to turn off #strava so didn’t get an accurate reading for today’s hike BUT I’m stoked to say I’m down to 304 lbs!!! My goal was to get under 300 lbs so I think I’m definitely going to make that happen! :) legs are also feeling really strong :) #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt345voHl0v/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14g9cbfrhd4po

14/34: 2 weeks in and 3 WEEKS before I leave!!! I didn’t have time to do my #WednesdayWeighIn so I’ll try to get one in tonight or tomorrow morning. I seriously have so much love for my boy @jessetporter who’s been keeping me in check the last two weeks. 🙏💙 Started my hike a little later than usual today and I met some awesome people this morning so a shoutout to them as well #PCT2019 #training #hiking #thruhike (at Peters Canyon Hike) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt1cFQDHWoU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v4s4htd7ftrd
