Jake Arens's Bio

My name is Jake Arens, but you can call me Sidetrack. I’m a disables hiker, and an advocate for Cerebral Palsy research. My ability to walk is a miracle. I honor that privilege by walking as much as I can. AT class of 2022 and TEAR 2024 (currently attempting). I also love writing, deep conversations, long hugs from old friends, and the watching the dust float away when rubbing dried mud off my furry legs.
