Sheltowee Trace 2019 New FKT | The First Five Days - Part 1 of 2

Days 1-5 of my Self-Supported FKT attempt on the 333 mile Sheltowee Trace. On November 11, 2019 I was able to successfully set the new Self-Supported FKT (fastest known time) on the 333 mile Sheltowee Trace in 9 days, 6 hours and 57 minutes. This was filmed vlog style by me to document my journey.

Even though I only filmed about 20-30 minutes of each 14 hour day, this video ended up being a little longer than normal but I didn’t want to leave out a bunch of memories of this huge event in my life.

I apologize in advance for the out of focus footage…time for a new camera.

For this FKT I used a Zpacks Duplex tent, a Lite AF 35 Curve Backpack with a UGQ 20 degree top quilt and Atra Timp 1.5 shoes.
