Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Bethany Hughes about enhancing body awareness through barefoot exploration and thru-hiking.  Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week's show: - How exploring barefoot movement in activities like hiking offers physical benefits and fosters a deeper connection with one's body and environment. - How trail maintenance reflects the evolving needs of hikers and the importance of preserving wildlife corridors through trail cultivation. - How thru-hiking connects with the earth, simplifies life, and allows individuals to experience discomfort to feel grounded. - Why you should balance your professional and personal development through nature experiences. - Why travel encourages individuals to be open to the unknown, confront vulnerabilities, and engage with unfamiliar cultures for personal growth.

We have the privilege of speaking with the two and only, Fidget and Neon, also known as Bethany Hughes and Lauren Reed! Two absolutely amazing woman who are on an epic journey. Hiking, biking, kayaking, using human power to connect their travels the length of the Americas. Yes you heard that correctly, not just America, but the Americas, the entirety of South America, Central America, and North America. An epic journey they are on which they call Her Odyssey. Beginning this journey 5+ years ago, it is possible by the end of 2022, that they will complete their odyssey. By connecting all of their human powered travels together. We were lucky enough to catch up with them while they were in Mexico a few days before they resume their epic quest. With 15,000 miles underneath their proverbial and literal hip-belts, they have but 5,000 miles left! Yet, those are just the stats, and as you know here at Off Trail, we dive quickly past the "stats page" to learn what make these adventurers unique, special, individually human. We talk of connection, we talk of the definition inside of "thru-hike" and how it has both pros and cons, we look into what it means to tackle a multi-year odyssey and the relationships, thoughts, and planning that goes into such a quest. We learn about what it means to truly live their motto of "a human powered journey connecting the land and its inhabitants." We learn what happens when as their website states: "the heart of the journey is connection." We cannot thank Fidget and Neon, and Her Odyssey enough for taking the time in their very very busy schedule to connect with us!
