Would You Survive the Ice Cream Gauntlet?

Appalachian Trail hikers don’t just battle blisters—they face the infamous half-gallon ice cream challenge at the halfway mark in Pennsylvania. Imagine trekking for miles, then devouring 2,500 calories of ice cream in one sitting (pure misery, but legendary bragging rights). Some finish in under 4 minutes, others tap out with regret and a stomachache. Complete it, and you get a wooden spoon and your photo on the wall. Would you take the challenge or stick to a breakfast sandwich? #AppalachianTrail #IceCreamChallenge #HikingAdventures #News
