Good things...this year marked the 15th year of the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge. Over 600 folks attempted to hike over 34 miles in one day. It sounds grueling and it is, but year after year, folks take on "The Challenge." It is a great event and you meet great people.
Good people...one of these crazy folks is Mike Lloyd, an attorney from Pittsburgh who completed the Challenge as the first leg of his three-part "Visionquest." Mike is raising money for Camp AIM, a program for special needs children at the South Hills YMCA. Read more about Mike at www.upperstclair.patch.com.
Good times...the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge brings out over 900 hikers and 200 volunteers. Without the volunteers, there would be no Challenge. Everyone pulls together for this great event that raises awareness and money for the trails while promoting physical activity. It is a Challenge, but also a connection of great, like minded people.
What is your visionquest???
