You dont need any physical conditioning, in 2 weeks youll have your trail legs the rest is in the mind. It does get rather dull too, the trails are probably the most boring thing ive ever done.
>>1109756this, make sure you go when its pouring rain too. Get used to being soaking wet all the time.
>>1109807yes, most people do, in fact even if you hike with someone youll probably spend most of the time alone and just meet that person at camp at night
>>1109876there are no niggers on the trail, actually thats not true i saw one mulatto on the pct
