So this is probably my insecurities showing but I have an invisible disability that affects my walking and stamina. Also my body doesn’t regulate my temperature very well. I tell you all this bc when I go even on a small trail, I have a sun hat and a hydration backpack and hiking poles. If you were to see someone on the trail like that, would you think they are a try hard? Or not think about me at all? It won’t stop me but I do wonder sometimes.
edit: Thanks y’all I’m feeling better. Sometimes I’m in my own head too much for sure
If somebody judges you for trying to protect yourself from skin cancer, dehydration, and hurt joints, then they’re the ones with the problem.
