Ron Kessler
Ron Kessler, 39, walked 3,600 miles (5,800 km) without a support vehicle from Cape Henlopen, DE to Point Reyes Seashore, CA in 2008 between March 1 and October 11. He loosely followed the American Discovery Trail from Delaware through Missouri, then carved his own route from Kansas westward. He walked to raise money for breast cancer research and encourage regular mammograms, and was inspired by a close friend who succumbed to the disease just months after the walk. Ron wishes to thank the many, many people who helped him along the way. His journal can be found at trail journals
