Jennifer Pharr Davis’ latest book, “The Pursuit of Endurance,” which was released in April of this year, is getting rave reviews by readers and reviewers alike.  

In 2011, Pharr Davis set the unofficial record for the fastest thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail with a time of 46 days, 11 hours, and 20 minutes, an average of 47 miles (76 km) a day, a record she held for four years until July 12, 2015, when Scott Jurek finished 3 hours and 12 minutes faster. Pharr Davis lives in Asheville, North Carolina with her husband Brew and their daughter Charley. She first hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2005 after graduating from Samford University.
