Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
An overweight, 61-year-old retiree, with zero hiking experience, decided to hike the entire 2,185.3 mile length of the Appalachian Trail in 2014. What could possibly go wrong? As his brother, Mike, commented, "It's a bit like taking up boxing and fighting Mike Tyson in your first bout." Join Steve and his guests as they discuss all aspects of the trail, from gear to Lyme Disease, then back to trail magic and injury.

I don’t hike and I’m not an outdoors person, but this podcast has inspired me. The interviews cover hikers of all experience level and age, so it’s appealing to a broad audience. Mighty Blue delivers great trail stories, interviews, personal experiences, and insights. It’s a “must-listen” for hikers and adventurers.
mixed bag, but ultimately I enjoy

for me, a very moving moment is when this woman starts to cry because the gentleman has a podcast spoke to her via phone when she was in Maine, and she didn't believe herself, but she can finish gets here is so beautiful and thanks to his encouragement believe in her she did. I didn't care for the diabeticwho is eating very dangerous food but I'm glad that people with diabetes one or two can't pick the trail but to be eating sugary toxic waste is just not a pleasant thought although I know the trail that's the go to
Absolutely Love It

I recently stumbled onto this show - although I’ve never met Steve, I feel like I’ve known him forever. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to pull together what it takes for a through-hike, but my wife and I are planning our first section hike soon. Steve I love your style of narrating and your way of conversing with people on the show - you are very accomplished! Also love how you weave in your personal life and your books, chapter by chapter. The fact that you are still plugging away and very active after all these years shows your level of passion for the AT and hiking in general. Keep up the great work!!
