I thought Trailosophy would complete the hike for sure. Her pure exuberance I thought would carry her through. Watching her joy as she hiked was like watching Julie Andrews singing in the mountains in Sound of Music. Trailosophy took some time off from the trail to visit Columbia then Brown to choose a graduate school. While in an Uber in Rhode Island she suddenly experienced severe cramping, diarrhea and inability to walk. Uber took her for emergency treatment and she was hospitalized. She has had to quit the trail at least for now with a diagnosis of Rhadomyolosis, a rare problem which causes the body to consume the leg muscles causing a spike in creatine levels and possible kidney damage as a result. This is a problem which can be caused by overuse, one commenter on her last update developed the same condition on the trail. It is also known to afllict ultrarunners and bike racers. Hope to see her back if it's safe.
