sundown, sunrise to sunset, longs for the pre-digital past

 Every year since 1996, the Rachel Carson Trails Conservancy hosts a "Rachel Carson Trail Challenge". Participants attempt a 34-mile long, one-day, sunrise to sunset endurance hike along the trail.[6][7] The stated challenge is simply to finish the entire stretch before sunset, or approximately 15 hours. Two shorter challenge routes of 18 miles and 8 miles are offered, as well.[8] The trail has also been part of the 100 Mile Quest, a challenge to hike 100 miles in one year.[9]
