    Hi Claire, this is a really interesting and informative video - thanks!
    If I could add a couple of nuggets from my time in the RAF:
    1. Keep the thing you might to access quickly either in side pockets or in the top of the pack. You don’t want to have to empty half the pack just to get your waterproofs.
    2. Minimum number of socks = the number of days out +1 (for a short trip) or +2 for a week
    3. Softer items placed against your back; bulky / odd shaped items furthest away from you; this reduces the chances of getting poked or rubbed by something sticking out.
    Nice job!

    you could probably save a bit of space by repacking the dried food into ziplocks or similar?

    Very nice video as always, Claire, but why not experiment with some lighter weight gear, even ultralight weight in the future? I'll bet you could get that down to6 to8 kg, including food and water and give your spine and knees a break.

      Lol thanks Doug, I do have lighter gear but I deliberately went for the heavy stuff as I'm training with a heavy pack for my ultra running. I'm quite used to carrying around 15kg due to lugging my toddler around atm, I'll defo not be racing with this lot tho! ;) Claire

      @@davidpollard343 Hey David, getting to Peebro is easy, but unfort then the race is not so simple via public transport, I recommend you join the FB group here to get a lift share with someone coming from Peebro, hope that helps! facebook.com/groups/365406784151408
