“Then the Hail Came” is the true story of George Steffanos on his quest to become more than just a two pack a day looser by finally completing something significant in his life - The Appalachian Trail. It is true that everyone who hikes the A.T. has their share of misfortune, but for George, it seems like a daily occurrence, yet he continues to put his best foot forward. All the ups and downs are described poignantly with humor as he manages to provide wonderful descriptions of the characters he meets, and the surrounding landscape encountered through all 2138 miles from Georgia to ...

Good story and great detail.
Revisado: 11-15-24
Good story made me feel like I was on the trail. The AI Voice Narration completely butchered the name of Mount Katahdin the entire story. It was very distracting. Also calling the A.T the “at” the entire time was not great at all. Would prefer it to listen to an AI narrated book if it is going to mispronounce massive pinnacles of the story and adventure.

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Impressive person, not real inspired
Revisado: 09-12-24
There is No question David Goggins was dealt a bad hand as a kid. Also no one can argue that he has accomplished more impressive physical and mental challenges than many will in many lifetimes. The books felt a little more like look at me, look how awesome David is and felt less about how can I the reader be inspired and be the best that I can be. He defined tried to inspire , it just didn’t come through to me in the audiobook/podcast. Still a good listen though.

Ben Davis was prepared for disaster. He just didn't know it would come so soon. He and his teenage son Joel, are miles deep in the backcountry of the San Juan Mountains when high-altitude nuclear electromagnetic detonations light up the pre-dawn sky. Ben, Joel, and their dog, Gunner, must make their way home - or whatever's left of it - on foot.

Good post apocalyptic story.
Revisado: 04-03-24
I enjoyed the story and detail. It wasn't though provoking or very intense, but it is a good easy listening post apocalyptic story.

The Pacific Crest Trail is a 2,600-mile footpath from Mexico to Canada through the mountains of the West, and Rick sets out for the six-month trek looking forward to being immersed in nature. But once on the trail, he's surprised to find that his fellow humans, when observed and listened to at foot speed, are the more interesting and instructive creatures.

Felt pessimistic and negative.
Revisado: 12-19-23
I usually love long Hike books. This one however, just felt like it was so negative. The first part of the book everyone seemed so rude. It was hard to listen to. I am not sure if it was the author's intent or if it was tone in which the narrator read it.

In May of 1963, Seattle mountaineer Jim Whittaker stepped into world history by becoming the first American to summit Mount Everest. More than 50 years later, he is still regarded as a seminal figure in North American mountaineering, as well as an astute businessman who helped create the outdoor recreation industry. A Life on the Edge: Memoirs of Everest and Beyond is Jim's courageous, no-punches-pulled autobiography and a look at a peripatetic, sometimes difficult life.
