On The Trail: Derick Lugo is The Unlikely Thru-Hiker

Derick Lugo chats with Lori about hiking the Appalachian Trail and his memoir "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 pack and a willfully can-do attitude. What follows are lessons on preparation, humility, race relations, and nature’s wild unpredictability. Through it all, Derick “Mr. Fabulous” Lugo 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.
