As I’ll hear? Your post ended with that, or maybe it’s my out of date operating system. I hiked with Tom Hickey a few times in 2003, when I was in Santa Fe taking care of my ill mother. I could never keep up with him! Talk about a fast hiker. I finally figured out that I could slow him down a tad by asking him questions about the various subjects he was learned in. Otherwise, I was always running behind him to keep up.

That sounds right! Tom was troubled by arthritis in his knees on our hike. I’m nearly 30 years his junior, and he still kept up a pretty good pace. The interview was actually conducted over two hikes. Only the second was a full day. Even though a long stint was spent with some slow-hiking backpackers, we still covered a good 22 miles.

Thanks for the tip on the video, I’ll check it.
