After he told me he covers maybe 10 miles a day on purpose to actually enjoy the trail, I stopped obsessing over my daily mileage goals and started packing for shorter days.

Right, because "a few hours" of walking through mud and up mountains with a 30 pound pack is totally the same as a stroll to the grocery store. Tell me you've never carried a backpack full of wet socks and ramen without telling me. I love that for her, she must be fun at parties, suggesting we all just casually jog a half marathon before lunch.
