Emily Holzhauer's Bio

My name is Emily and I’m from the middle of nowhere Illinois. In December 2015 I will graduate with my bachelor’s degree in exercise science from Southern Illinois University. Much to my mother’s dismay, I will be setting out to thru- hike NOBO March 2016.

    Awesome list! I created a spotify account just to listen to it. I’ll also be starting my NOBO thru-hike this spring (March 20 from Springer). Perhaps we’ll cross paths on the trail!
