Christine Reed is a backpacker and author of Alone in Wonderland. In this episode we discuss going through a life change, backpacking/hiking alone, food and the changes in your body from hiking and more!  From Christine's website: Christine discovered long distance backpacking while surfing the internet at work. She decided that day to attempt to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail. One adventure led to another and a few years later she set out on the Wonderland Trail in Mt Rainier National Park.  ​Her Rugged Outdoors Woman persona started as a joke, a nod to the outdoor adventurer that she wished to be. But in the years since, she has come into her own as a backpacker, rock climber, and trail runner.
