Some ATC thru-hiker stats

The following is the link to read some interesting historical ATC thru-hiker stats:

Jack and Chris are keeping a pretty quick pace, averaging about 25 miles per day. Their journey is not over yet, so it would be presumptuous to report on their final count until after they reach Mt. Katahdin, the northern terminus of the AT. However, the number of hikers who have completed the trail in 100 days or less is relatively small, perhaps a hundred or so, compared to over 10,000 who report having completed the trail in the last 60 years.
