With all due respect, you live near the American Discovery Trail so you have a skewed perception of normalcy with that lol
It is definitely unusual for someone to walk across the United States. Wikipedia has a list of famous walks (which, of course, doesn’t include the average joes who have done it) but the fact that the page exists lends to the idea that it’s pretty notable!
Anyway. I knew a guy who did the walk. It was his fun fact at parties. He wasn’t white and said he learned to call ahead to let authorities know he was coming through on foot.
Good for him. But it is not unusual.
I live near the American Discovery Trail and have hosted many hikers and bikers that have walked across the United States.

That link got mangled for me for some reason. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_who_have_walked_across_the_United_States

(looks like I typoed a / at the start of the URL)
It’s a great party fact! Very few people have done it and it’s a legitimate accomplishment regardless
You are correct my partners cousin did this for some awareness that I don’t even remember what it was.
