Today I have joined the gym in an attempt to get fit enough for this challenge, well lets face it, who wants to go walking in this weather??? although in saying that I did go for a walk last weekend, but the majority of it was waterlogged and lets just say I think there was more mud on my boots than there was in the field!
Have been busy purchasing the essential items for the trek, so far I have bought:
- Walking Boots
- Waterproof jacket
- Fleece
- 4 pairs of walking socks (a few more required!!)
- A backpack to be used as a day bag
- Water bottle
- Metal cup
Thanks to my Grandma I have a torch for those dark evenings and a neck pillow which will come in handy!
Still got a fair bit to get, the sleeping bag being most important!!!! Need to get one that has a comfort rating of at least freezing! eek! Must get some advice on that one!!
