This year I decided to participate in the 52 Hike Challenge as a fun way to track the miles and places that I hike. It is pushing me to explore new trails and not repeat them as often. I really enjoy looking back and seeing where I’ve been so far this year. And it has been a crazy 4.5 months.
So far I have completed 24 hikes in 7 different states! Some highlights have been:
Arches National Park, 
Canyonlands National Park, 
Mammoth Cave National Park (x2); 
Cuyahoga Valley National Park;
Watkins Glen State Park;
Radium Hot Spring;
and Starved Rock State Park Mega Hike.
I am excited to see where the other 28 hikes lead! Learn more about the 52 Hike Challenge here.
