Am I being unreasonable?

I found a love for backpacking this summer and it’s my dream to hike the AT. I only completed my first overnight trip in September and have gone on two more since, the longest of which being 70 miles. Is it reasonable to try and work extremely hard to start NOBO in 2025? I could do it financially and lifestyle wise but I fear that I don’t have the time to properly prepare myself and should wait a year. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Wow thank you all for the input, I’m incredibly inspired.
