Brandon "Horsepower" Weis is an American long-distance hiker known for completing the "Calendar Year Triple Crown" in 2021, which involves hiking the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and Continental Divide Trail (a combined 8,000 miles) within one calendar year. Originally from Ohio, Weis was a future law student who left for the trails after an eye-opening backpacking experience in college, which inspired him to take on extraordinary hiking challenges.

Brandon returned home to pen his experiences in the book, "This is Gonna Hurt" where he recounts in detail what he went through to complete this (what some would call) crazy task. You can find the book on Amazon.
