Bobby Sanders (Lefty)

This week, I’m joined by 2020 thru-hiker Bobby Sanders, aka Lefty. I often refer to Lefty as the socialite of the AT, as so many hikers this year have a story of a memorable moment shared with him. In 1999, he suffered an electrical accident that resulted in the loss of his right arm, two fingers on his left hand, and damaged his left leg. The doctors were unsure if he would walk again. He has since run four marathons and thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail. Join us today for a conversation about the importance of family, perseverance through injury, seeking faith on the AT, and so much more.      Find Lefty’s YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCshWGLiqN63IXuM9GefnvyQ     Connect with the show!

In 2020, I got to live out my thru-hiking dream, but I'm only one of thousands of people who hikes on the Appalachian Trail - what are their stories? That's what I hope to find out! Join me every-other Wednesday for interviews with other hikers and recounts of my own thru-hike!
