Welcome to Episode 229 of the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue Podcast. This week we are joined by Nick Gagnon - better known as Chezwick. Chezwick is a long distance thru hiker who just successfully completed a Fastest Known Time for hiking’s Triple Crown - completing the Pacific Coast Trail, The Continental Divide and the Appalachian trail in a continuous hike. Hikers train and plan a lifetime to complete these hikes over years. Chezwick completed this 7500 mile thru hike in 231 days, 7 hours, and 33 minutes - breaking the previous record by a few days. He averaged over 32 miles a day every day he was out. He’s kind enough to sit down with us to share his story.
Join the SLASR Podcast 48 Peaks Team on June 13 to hike Mount Adams
