I would agree with you Pika. I've been reading Nimblewill Nomad's journals and that guy is a hiking machine! He's been hiking long trails since 1998 and I think he is in his upper 70's.
That gives me hope. To be debt free and able to hike long trails is my long term goal. One step at a time for each.
