I think there is a big danger to the spiritual side of your PCT "pilgrimage"
if you become one of the front runners. The danger is that the hike will take
on an external competitive nature to see who can finish first, and your focus
will become on beating the other guy. If you then lose the race you become
less than the other guy. If you win you have isolated yourself into a very
egotistical box. Neither person has really left behind a very competitive culture to
focus on other things
