Is anyone else doing an adult reading program this summer? Like the ones you used to do when you were little? I'm doing one through the East Lansing Public Library!

Walking to Listen: 4,000 Miles Across America, One Story at a Time | 
Is anyone else doing an adult reading program this summer? Like the ones you used to do when you were little? I'm doing one through the East Lansing Public Library!
This post is related to reading through degrees of separation (read>comfy>warm drink>coffee) my ADHD has me leaving out my coffee creamer all the damn time, so I'm sadly banishing myself to only powdered creamer for the time being. Good grief.
I have a challenge idea!!
Let‘s try and read 40 Hours in 20 Miles! Run, stroll or hike : it doesn‘t matter! Track your progress and see how long it takes to meet BOTH goals!
I haven‘t seen any challenges like this yet, but I think this could really motivate us to get moving !
Please comment on your thoughts and if you are interested. I will probably start it Monday 4/20 so everyone has time to find a good audiobook!

pickForsthoefl took off after college, walking across the country, listening to the stories of people he met along the way. The journey was harder than he ever could have imagined, but the love and generosity he encountered exceeded every expectation. A little heavy on the philosophy for me, but still an engrossing read. #nonfictionNovember

Overall I was able to relate to this book and draw parallels to my own hike. I enjoyed hearing about the everyday Americans the author met. But he seems a bit self-important. Walking across the country doesn‘t make you special or a sage. And he republished, at length, the journal of a mass murderer.

Saw this at Powell's. Basically me except I have the luxury of weightless #audiobooks on my phone.
Finished Chapter 1
#TBRtemptation -- this one looks fascinating.
