Hiking 35:15 [3] 1.65 mi (21:22 / mi) +837ft 14:26 / mi
Drove to Jerusalem Road in Tyringham to hike south on the AT. There's a very steep hill which is soon followed by another substantial climb. Once I had been out for 35 minutes, I decided that was enough walking and I could then run back to the car.
Hiking 23:16 [3] 1.65 mi (14:06 / mi) +266ft 12:14 / mi
And then I ran back almost al the way to the car, save for one little steep uphill portion.
Saw seven thru hikers during my hike/run, but I didn't find any opportunity to chat with any of them--they all seemed intent on moving, rather than talking; most likely they were thinking of setting up the evening soon and pushing to get to the Shaker Tentsite, or perhaps the Goose Pond Shelter.
