Ep. 875: TRIPLE Triple Crowner - Heather "Anish" Anderson

Triple crown thru-hiking: Heather Anderson's 2018 record as first woman to complete Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide Trails in one year, 7,900 miles in 251 days, three-time finisher of all three, plus PCT and AT self-supported FKTs, shared in her book Thirst: 2600 Miles to Home.

Originally aired March 22, 2019.

In 2018, Heather Anderson became the first woman to hike all three of the "Triple Crown" thru-hikes; Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide Trails in a single calendar year and to finish all three trails three times! The 7,900-mile triple crown journey took 251 days to complete and led her to become a 2019 National Geographic Adventurer of the Year.

She also holds the overall record for self-supported fastest known time on the Pacific Crest Trail (60 days) and the women's self-supported FKT on the Appalachian Trail (54 days).

Her book, Thirst: 2600 Miles to Home came out earlier this month, which recounts her story of leaving her unsatisfying job, marriage, and life after her first thru-hike in order to return back to the trail and begin hiking again.
