you know by logic and reasoning I could take the car and just drive. Until the tank is empty... drive until the tank is empty.... the empty tank... inside a car that is taking me far away....it doesn't matter where I'm going each day will be just as the day before.... monotonous and lonely
Mostly, I just want to feel something.
If you only knew how pathetic I really am
Got a Girl Crush On: Emma “Grandma” Gatewood
Before fitbits and jawbones and mall speed-walkers, there was the type of gumption to pull oneself up by their literal bootstraps (or, in this instance, Keds), inspired by having eleven children and enduring an abusive relationship.
Grandma Emma Gatewood was an Ohio farmer’s wife, mother of eleven, and grandmother of twenty-three. At the age of 67, she was the first woman to hike the 2,168-mile Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine solo. She did it in 1955, wearing only sneakers, an army blanket, a raincoat, a plastic shower curtain for shelter, a cup, first aid kit, and one change of clothe—all carried in a homemade bag. Her hiking diet is told consisted mainly of dried beef, cheese and nuts, supplemented by wild food she would find along the way.
"Upon completion of the epic trail, she told Sports Illustrated, ‘I would never have started this trip if I had known how tough it was, but I couldn’t and wouldn’t quit.’ She hiked the Appalachian Trail two more times, in 1960 and in 1963, completing her final hike in sections. She was the first person to hike the trail three times, and she was the oldest woman to thru-hike the trail until Nancy Gowler did so at the age of 71 in 2007."
