Two questions I am always asked about my thru-hikes are "How many miles per day did you hike?" and "What did you eat?". My Colorado Trail thru-hike was short enough where I was able to keep track of this information. The information should prove to be informative, amusing and scary.
Believe it or not kept track of the food I ate. Did my best estimating calories based on web sites and such. (For example, made a typical bar and grill burger equal to a TGIF Burger). Can't be too far off. That's 58 snicker bars in 20.5 days if anyone is curious!
For you stat wonks kept track of my mileage and such. The lower mileage days generally coincided with town stops
