The Appalacian Trail has been routed to include a multitude of beautiful mountains, but then there are many hills that hikers consider nothing special; hence, the acronym PUDS (pointless up and downs). Pictured above is Jake doing our PPE (pointless pack excursion), which only makes sense in the context of training for PUDS. Normally when you're on the trail you think, well, if anything happens to me, at least I have a tent and sleeping bag and food and water. But what would we do if we got stuck on the side of the dirt road, would we find comfort in our 20 lb. kettlebell?
