On today’s episode we’re traveling to the High Sierra of California where Caroline Himbert recently set the women’s unsupported northbound record on the premier John Muir Trail. Her first long, unsupported effort was a way for her to go back to her roots as a long distance hiker. Along the way she dealt with excruciating foot pain, a knee injury, and the effects of sleep deprivation. Tune in to hear how she almost missed the record when her hallucinations led her off trail, her “brain said goodbye” and she fell asleep for over 4 hours, just miles from the finish and why she ended up in Urgent Care after it was all over.
