Supporting a PCT thru-hiker

In the article, a man named Bill Davies thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail. Thanks to the aid of his wife, he jump-started their love of trails. Bill's wife fed other hikers besides Bill, supplying them with water, food, and a place to sleep. Together, Bill and his wife are grateful that he had hiked the PCT, which they call "the crown jewel of the trails of the world that now seem like home". The article taught me that other people hike the trail for their own causes. Not everyone has to be going through a hard time in their lives to hike. Many hikers hike simply for their own pleasure. This article mentioned other trails. What are the Continental Divide, the Pyrenees GR 10, and the Compostela de Santiago? Why are trail names so significant to hikers?
