It’s currently 10:26 PM on Friday April 2, 2021. I just got off of the table after being adjusted by my stepmom. She is a chiropractor that uses Applied Kinesiology to find the parts of the body that can remove pain or tight muscles in another area of the body. Honesty, it’s a little crazy, but, I’m not complaining! After a lot of work on my left foot, it got to a point where I could feel it in my lower back, were talking about my foot, ok. So, she moved up to my L5, lumbar 5 and put her arthrostim device there and let it “jack hammer” on the L5, once I heard the “jack hammering” release I could feel the pain go away in my foot. The body is so amazing.

So, rewind to 6:00 pm, it was me, my girlfriend , and my youngest son, standing at the check in counter, and I got a tap on my shoulder. It was my dad and stepmom coming to see me off. I thought they were going to come April 3, 2021, launch day but they showed up today! Fast forward to after sunset,

While I was getting that adjustment, my sister and her family walked in! I was not supposed to see them until, Franklin, NC, mile 110. Needless to say, today has been a good day seeing family before taking off tomorrow morning.

Alright friends, after three years of thinking about doing this hike and a few girlfriends that didn’t think it was a smart thing to do,nor would support it, it’s time for me to launch, and with an awesome girlfriend that is one hundred percent supporting me!
