Routes
God bless the folks behind crosstowntrail.org
I personally used AllTrails with the exception of needing turn by turn directions for a few reroutes, I find this the easiest to follow!

OOTD
I thought long and hard about this outfit and I think I nailed it
Loved how thick this was, borderline neoprene vibes but more comfortable
The Micro Bra in Black
You might be thinking, this is half a shirt? Yes, and it's perfect for when your shoulders are sunburnt but its 85 degrees out
Amelia Airweight Lite Shrug in Black
Love how compact this can get, lightweight yet super warm
Pippa Packable Puffer Jacket
On sale!! A lot of my favorite leggings are from Abercrombie.
Women's YPB sculptLUX 7/8-Length Legging
Changed socks every 2 sections and I think that helped a decent amount!
Feetures High Performance Socks
I have a slightly different version that's a few years older with a mesh front but same vibes. Normally use for travel but it was great for the walk!

Had 2 of these and they were delicious and seemed to genuinely energize me

These are my favorite turkey sticks, only packed a few bc I knew I wouldn't be craving protien on the walk but they were nice to have
Country Archer Turkey Jerky Sticks
Another HoneyStinger dub. Got the non caffeinated ones and they were delicious

These are the only ones without oat, a nice switch up and don't really melt

This did not hit the spot in the moment but I'm glad I had one with me still
