Sierras, here I come! I walked into Kennedy Meadows 6/21 at 3:00pm and it feels GREAT. I visited Lake Isabella and had 50 miles until I got into KM. I did 3o miles one day and 20 the next. My legs and feet are extremely sore, but I'm taking a zero day and hope to feel 100% before I go into the Sierras.
My appetite is unsatisfiable. The first day in Lake Isabella I ate a bacon cheddar burger, double chocolate milkshake, a burger king whopper and chicken sandwich. The second day I ate a foot-long meatball sub from subway, medium fries, two double chocolate cookies, two pizza slices, bread sticks, and a chili hot dog with cheese (not to mention m&ms, even though I just mentioned them).
I could have eaten more...
Supposedly, in the Sierras, people are eating double what they normaly eat. So, I am going to have to pack more and carry some more food weight. Yum Yum Eat'em Up.
I MISS EVERYONE

ReplyDelete"Elizabeth, will you please relay this to Lander? I can't post on her blog because I am too inept to figure out how! 700 miles is unbelievable.
Hi Lander, I'm your mom's friend from Montgomery and I am a hiker, too. Nothing like you, but still, wish I was there! Sounds like you're eating well and that's good. Are you also doing freeze dried? It all tastes the same to me, but I think calories are calories and you sure need them. Take care and thanks for letting me share in your adventure.
