Episode #450 - Larry Ripari (Bird)
Manage episode 439485144 series 3356688
Larry Ripari, fresh from his recent completion of not only an Appalachian Trail thru-hike, but also the hiking Triple Crown, shares his story with us this week. Larry became Bird on trail, a persona he was happy to assume, yet one he is now leaving behind.
He is full of insights on all three trails, sharing his knowledge and even his budget as he successfully negotiated them all.
You can check out Larry on social media on Instagram at Instagram (@ohreallylar) and on YouTube at Hiker Larry
Our Class of 2024 is moving towards the end for some of our team. Hear the joy in Sloggy’s voice as he describes his Katahdin summit with his family, while No Rush, the Elder, has some news to break to us.
Also on today, Dianne Seger, better known to many of us as Lady Di, is selling her awesome hostel in Damascus. I invited her on to tell us about the place. If you’d like to check it out, you can do so on Zillow, at 217 Damascus Dr, Damascus, VA 24236 | MLS #96062 | Zillow. You can also check out Lady Di’s website at Bed & Breakfast | Lady Di’s Bed & Breakfast | United States
Our new book reading, Happy Hiking, by my friend, Emily Leonard is–of course–written from a woman’s POV and a woman’s voice. I hope you enjoy listening to my reading of it. If you’d like to buy the book, you can find it on Amazon at Happy Hiking: Falling in love on the Appalachian Trail, or on Emily’s website, at Happy Hiking.
I used my recent hike in the UK on the South West Coast Path to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I’ve been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters . I hope you want to support this critical mission.
Don’t forget. Our entire series of videos from our Woods Hole Weekend in 2022 is now FREE and available at my YouTube page at Woods Hole Weekend - Trailer. There, you’ll find all sorts of tips and tricks that our guests took away from the weekend that helped them with their own hikes this year. Check it out.
I often ask listeners for ideas on who to interview, and I’m sure several of you say, “I could do that. I’ve got an awesome story to tell.” You’re the person we need to hear from. If you’d like to be interviewed on the podcast, just register as a guest on the link below, and I’ll be in touch. Come on the show!
