Average age of thru hiker.

Since I heard about the PCT a few years ago I've always wanted to attempt a thru hike but feel like I missed my chance I am going to be turning 30 this year. I know that there are people older than me who have done a thru bike before but how many people between let's say 25-55 (career aged) years old are on the trail ?

Edit: thank you all for the kind replies. I do plan on doing a SOBO thru hike some day just not sure when. Just wanted to see if anyone else was in the same 🚣. Happy hiking!!
