The Unlikely Thru-Hiker

This week we sat down with Derick Lugo. Derick is the author of The Unlikely Thru-Hiker. The Unlikely Thru-Hiker is the story of a young black man setting off from the city with an extremely overweight backpack and a willfully can-do attitude. What follows are lessons on preparation, humility, race relations, and nature's wild unpredictability. Through it all, Derick refuses to let any challenge squash his inner Pollyanna persevering with humor, tenacity and an unshakeable commitment to grooming that sees him from Georgia to Maine.
