This time we went to 56 miles at Jo-Mary Road which made a huge difference. We went to a place called Nahmakanta Lake Stream which is 42 miles in. The second time on day one, we really didnвЂ™t go far enough. Meltzer: The first time around was a nightmare with the water. Just me knowing the trail and being on the trail made me feel better about it and more confident especially the Maine part. I reconned a lot for my crew, too, so they would know it and stuff like that. So I did that, and then I came home and went back in March and did all the southern part. So I said, вЂњYeah, letвЂ™s do it.вЂќ I went to the East Coast in 2015 September and did all of Maine and reconned it the way itвЂ™s supposed to be done because the first two times I didnвЂ™t do it right. Karl, do what you need to do to get it done,вЂќ which was really cool. LetвЂ™s do it in 2016 because you can do more recon. I was like, вЂњNo way am I going back.вЂќ But time passed by a little bit and we talked about it a little bit in February and said, вЂњWell, if we do it, letвЂ™s not do it in 2015. Meltzer: We talked about in 2015, Red Bull came to me with the idea, вЂњHey, Karl, do you want to do the AT one more time?вЂќ Actually, they came to me in 2014 right after I bailed out. You seem like a totally laid back guy, but when you get into somethingвЂ¦ youвЂ™re low-key in outward presentation, butвЂ¦ You did tons of reconnaissance and a ton of planning.

YouвЂ™ve been doing this three times, and it wasnвЂ™t just that. IRunFar: There are so many things to talk about. ItвЂ™s a stout record either way, but itвЂ™s breakable. At the same time, itвЂ™s going to go down, of course.

It feels great to finally have the record. IвЂ™m chilling out and relaxing and trying to enjoy life and Bernie here. I donвЂ™t have to run for a month, havenвЂ™t run a step in a month. To do it three times and do all the recon and all the work I put into it, it would have been a bummer not to come out of it ahead, but it feels good. IRunFar: You have done this three times, and now you finally have done it. ItвЂ™s a good feeling to get it done after three times. IRunFar: Bryon Powell of iRunFar here with Karl Meltzer after his record-setting run of the Appalachian Trail. Karl Meltzer 2016 Appalachian Trail FKT Transcript
