1.The hiking version of a "poser", they don't enjoy nature, they just race up the trails at 6AM to show off to their white collar co-workers the following Monday and harass other hikers on the trail for being newbies and not in shape, even though the other hikers are just relaxing.
2. Fitness freaks who are looked down upon by the rest of the hikers on the trail
3. The hiking version of a "1337 h8k0r"
