seriously depends on how strong a hiker you are and how much weight you’ll have with you. keep in mind Georgia is a very tough state.
maybe you’ll get some answers from other thru-hikers, but also realize that in April it gets dark by 6:30, so you’ll have another hour of daylight compared to the rest of us.

The first day will be the easiest day you will have for a long while. Most go to hawk mountain shelter or about 10 miles. After that, hike what you feel like. Careful you don’t try to hang with a group thats into big miles. Start out slow and avoid the injuries. You will see those mile monsters fall out or have to take recoup days while you pace your hike to you. Don’t worry about miles per day. That number will regulate to you as you get your trail legs under you.
