EDIE LITTLEFIELD SUNDBY – THE MISSION WALKER

SOURCE:  Charlotte Kahl, Founder OST100

Edie Littlefield Sundby became “THE MISSION WALKER” when she walked the 1600-mile El Camino Real de las Californias mission trail through Baja California, Mexico to Northern California in 2015 after losing her right lung to cancer.

Feeling the need to walk and breathe after the 2020 year of pandemic separation and isolation she dreamt of walking the 2,817-mile Old Spanish Trail auto highway paved in the 1920s from “mission to mission” – San Diego, California to St. Augustine, Florida.

This dream is coming true as she leaves San Antonio Friday morning May 7th, 2021, beginning the adventure across the Texas portion of the OST heading toward the Atlantic Ocean.  Without a donkey or campervan for essential camping gear, THE MISSION WALKER will use a Swedish Trionic Veloped Trek along the OST.  At a leisurely pace, depending on weather, traffic, and stamina Edie will proceed.

Walkers are welcome to join her for a bit each day as she passes through Old Spanish Trail auto highway cities on US 90, Alt90, or Bus90.
