We have a husband and wife section-hiking team on the show today. Deb Taylor and Danny Mooney have done Iron Man races, Triathlons, and Marathons for years, yet Covid cemented and grew a new love–backpacking on the Appalachian Trail.
Deb and Danny share their insights and reflect upon the correlations they have found between hiking the trail and those other disciplines.
You should also check out their AT journeys at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8hBpjbcE1Gil9GwPEb8s1Q/videos where, amongst other goodies, as we referred to in our conversation, Danny Mooney lives up to his name with the Cog Train in the Whites.
You can also connect with Deb on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/coachdeb32/
and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/deb.taylor.984
The two pics below are from their Iron Man days. A spectator caught the two of them meeting up in the race, then grabbing a quick kiss.
Katie is out of Maine and heading into the Presidential Range and New Hamphire. She reflects upon Maine and looks forward to this next great chapter in her adventure.
Finally, we meet a couple of hikers who are reluctant to shed pounds from their packs in the famous Mountain Crossings shakedown.
