[pct-l] Slow-thru-hiking the PCT



My lively imagination tells me I can thru-hike the PCT, but reality 
notices I have limited stamina (I have Parkinson's), and in all 
likelihood I'd be lucky if I pulled off 10 miles per day.  I'd 
appreciate hearing any observations about how viable a thru hike might 
be at that rate, e.g. how far am I likely to get, how many summers it's 
likely to take, how feasible resupply would be, etc.  I'm in awe of the 
stamina exhibited by folks who are walking the whole trail, but I'm also 
trying to make sense of my yearning.
