Go Take a Hike

Are you beginning to feel like you're fused to your couch?  Do you consider making it through an entire streaming Netflix series an actual accomplishment?  You may not be able to go to the gym or participate in an exercise class, but there is another alternative.  Hiking.  There are so many benefits to a good hike.  You can choose anything from easy to strenuous.  Flat to steep.  And not only are you getting physical exercise, you're also able to take a mental hiatus from the incessant pandemic news.

There are several apps that help you choose a local trail.  They'll even warn you if you start wandering off track.  They'll tell you how far you've gone, your pace, and your elevation gain.  Some of the more popular free ones are AllTrails,  TrailLink, and Cairn.

Get up, get out, and put those smoke-free lungs to good use.

I am starting to hike....going down to NC at end of this month!

 

There is great hiking in the Tar Heel State.

 

Cataloochee Valley is one of my favorite regions of Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Linville Gorge is one of my favorite places on the planet.

 

Have fun out there.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
