In our first live Q&A we answer all the hiking questions thrown at us by the audience at the same time as trying to produce our usual podcast segments. Being questioned in a live format was a little daunting for both of us but I think we made it through unscathed for the most part. Some really interesting questions came up about hiking, fitness, trail food and solo hiking as well as some great input from the viewers on various topics.
