Oh, Happy Day!

Just had the first proper go at packing my kit. Got all the tiddly health stuff in individual sealed bags and packed together in a dry bag. Light stuff at the bottom, heavier food bag at the top. First aid kit, venom pump and day 1 food in front pack. Couple of minor things still to add in but main thing is - IT ALL FITS!!!! Kit list said 8.7kg but it doesn't feel all that heavy and it sits comfortably. Going to take it all out on a 30k  Saturday A.M. and see how that goes.

This is a big moment for me as I've been a bit apathetic the last few days just wishing the start would hurry up and get here but with this morning's success and a renewed effort at fundraising, I'm very excited again.

Fly out 8 weeks today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
