911 on the AT

Her knee was toast. It had rained enough overnight to make the fallen leaves on the trail slippery.
Hiking the Appalachian Trail had been on her bucket list and she was finally attempting it. She had done okay so far and persevered for a hundred miles, but there was no way she could make it another mile today.
How was she ever going to survive the remaining 2,097 miles?
Well, she decided to admit that she hadn’t failed, but had succeeded in hiking 100 miles of the AT.
Now to call 911 and get the hell out of here.
