Starting the Pinhoti Trail tomorrow. Going self supported with no expectations https://spotwalla.com/tripViewer.php?id=1e0465ce4e8f97afc2&hoursPast=0&showAll=yes

Started today at 7:28 am alabama time. Having issues with the spot but getting some tracking to go through at https://spotwalla.com/tripViewer.php?id=1e0475ce4e93b4d29a&p=Pinhoti&hoursPast=0&showAll=yes

i will be recording a track each day on my watch which seems like the most reliable tracking method.

I’m trying to go after the self supported record starting in two days, in a potentially ill advised but nevertheless fun jaunt. Tracking here: https://us0-share.inreach.garmin.com/whereswillie

also updates on my Instagram @wamoth.

Congrats Willie! That was truly amazing! I had plans to go after this one self supported next November but after the massive miles you put up I think I will look elsewhere!

Congrats to Willie Thacker! Looks like he did it! New unsupported FKT. 6 days, 16 hours (pending verification).
