BOULDER, Colo. — Carter Snelson was a sophomore at the University of Colorado Boulder when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, closing the doors of his classrooms and his favorite businesses around campus. Far from home and needing a socially-distanced hobby to pass the time, he adopted a mission.
His journeys initially took him from corner to corner of the CU campus, but after conversations with his brother, Snelson knew he needed a bigger mission. He resolved that by the time he graduated, he would walk every single street in Boulder. “I’ve learned a lot about myself through this, because I’ve had so much time to just think by myself and figure things out,” he said. “And I can say, I love myself more after this.”
