Keep on Trekking: Reflections of a DOC Fifty Hiker
About a month ago, my teammates and I finished the Dartmouth Outing Club Fifty. Some quick context: A bunch of people sign up in groups of four for the lottery-based chance to hike 53 miles in one go, with plenty of emotional and physical support along the way from disparate reaches of Dartmouth’s wonderful, wacky and brightly-attired outdoor community. As soon as my team and I were selected as some of the fortunate few to torture ourselves for a day and a half back in late June, I knew I was going to want to write about the experience. Plenty have done it, and I’ve grown to love the formal outlet for reflection that a good published article provides.

The Dartmouth sat down with baseball players at the College to find out why they chose to devote their summers to such demanding leagues.

Matching the celestial bodies, Rogers emerged on stage wearing an orange leotard and a sheer wrap-skirt.
