Markus Woodring, 38, from Mifflin, PA, has only been a hiker for four months. He is also one of KTA's newest 100-Mile Trail Challenge participants!
He took the challenge because it acts as an incentive to get him on the trails, and he has set, as a personal goal, to finish the entire Appalachian Trail in Pennsylvania by the end. He also plans on hiking Old Loggers Trail and Flat Rock Trail. Marcus is being sponsored by friends and family, and working on getting his co-workers involved as well. Marcus says that a good pair of boots is essential to any hiker because happy feet can take you far! Marcus hopes that his friends and family take advantage of the trails we have to offer and help ensure that they will be around for future generations to enjoy.
Markus took the Challenge. Will you?
