The 22 and the 24.

22 and the 24 miler. Well yesterday and today. 3-20-12. Were our biggest days yet by far and I have to say they were harder. I think the 22 was harder to be honest. The 22 was a big mountain then a bunch of small up downs. I did manage to fall on easily the flattest ground we've been on yet on the 22 day. Not just fall but a full tuck and roll. All I did was get caught up in a 5 inch stick. It was crazy. So Goose and I are now even on the falls. Well for the 24 miler we left this morning about 6:42ish because we had to make it to the hostel by 5 in order to catch the dinner shuttle for Subway. Now must of you are thinking something like "Leave that early just for Subway? Psssh no way." (see what I did there?) Well let me explain how good Subway taste after hiking a 24 mile day and coming off the trail. So picture this. First you're going to the country side of England where they have the best veal. You will run around the country side finding this glorious meat. Once you have found the prefect calf to produce the perfect meat. You buy it. No matter the cost. Now you're on your way to Maine to find the best lobster. You go to Maine find the best lobster fisherman and go with him on his run. Don't forget your scuba gear cause you're gonna hand pick that lobster from the ocean floor. Once you got that lobster go home. Now at home feed that lobster the hand chosen veal for three weeks. Make sure that lobster is nice and big. Now take the lobster to Emeril to cool it. Bam. He cooks it. Bam. It's eating time. Bam once more for good effect and out of respect for Emeril. Now eat this veal fed Lobster. Enjoy it because it only taste this good once. AND that's how freaking delicious Subway is on the trail. Anyway it seems that my legs are now in shape for bigger miles. Also we went over our last "real" mountain for good awhile today. Means flats and rolling hills. So we should be able to produce bigger miles. That is all for now. I will update later.
