[pct-l] Looks like somebody else is trying to break the record.

[Stephen Clark]

Anish began her journey on June 8th. She was at mile 2574 at 1:15PM
yesterday, 88 miles from Manning Park. Assuming she hiked late again last
night she could be within 50 miles of her goal and finish tonight or
tomorrow.

It's interesting that no one has heard of this new attempt until a day
before expected finish. He had to have run into someone and told them of
his quest in the last 50+ days!!??!!
