Report

This was the second time going for this after failing back in October of 2022.

Tried taking it a bit easier on the first few days, but ended with the same injury that stopped my in my tracks 3 years ago. I ended up walking most of the last 3 days, but was happy to finish the Empire Trail on foot from Buffalo to Battery Park for the second time!
