March 28, 2019 04:00 - 1 hour - 31.2 MBDevin and I had a super casual conversation about breaking bones on a thru-hike, hiking with Lyme, contacts, goals for the future, and sooooo much more. "So many different things happened on trail. When people ask you, 'How was trail?' Well the whole thing overall was great!
