Ready for the weekend
The lists are made, we’ve agreed who’s carrying what, and we’ve looked at the weather forecast. We’re ready for the weekend. We’ve deliberatly chosen to do this long run on a weekend when we have to finish work on the Friday, leave for the weekend and then go back to work on the Monday – this way we hope to copy the stresses – or at least some of the stresses that will appear on the journey.
We talked last night about food, tents, and security; we’ve talked so much about so many of these things that now I think we ‘just need to get on with it’.
I’ll be posting to the blog during the trip, as well as uploading photos and tracking – it’s a perfect opportunity to test our tech. I’m expecting a lot of it not to work, but we’ve got quite a long time to get this kind of thing sorted.
