Over several years, U.S. Senator Tim Kaine hiked the 559 miles of the Appalachian Trail that cross Virginia, biked 321 miles along the crest of the Virginia Blue Ridge on beautiful parkways built during the Great Depression, and canoed the entire 348 mile-long James River from its headwaters in the Allegheny Mountains to its entrance into the Chesapeake Bay.
