Hey guys!

 

Training camp is less than a week away! From Oct 19-29 I’ll be in Gainseville, GA getting ready for the World Race! And I have absolutely no idea what will be going down while I’m there haha

 

I purposely decided to not read up on what exactly we’ll be doing, so that way I have no expectations. I know I’ll meet my squad for the first time, and I know we’ll be doing some hiking. The rest of training camp is a mystery!

I’m bringing most of what I’ll be bringing for the Race:

 

  • Kelty Salida 2-person tent – enough room to fit me and all my stuff

  • Mountainsmith Apex 80 backpack – an internal frame backpack with 80L of packing space. Super comfortable!

  • REI Duck’s Back Rain Cover – 80 L

  • Day Pack – the same backpack I used for school

  • Multiple compression sacks

  • Sleeping bag – military grade sleeping bag that takes up way too much space in my backpack, but I like it. So I’m keeping it.

  • REI Stratus Insulated Air Sleeping Pad

  • Thin blanket – most countries I’m going to will be hot, so this is necessary for nights when I’ll keep my sleeping bag open

  • Therm-a-rest camping pillow

  • Shirts, shorts, underwear, socks – enough for 10ish days (I’ll definitely pack less for the actual Race)

  • The North Face Venture Jacket – grey

  • Hoodie

  • Seahawk’s Snapback – go hawks!

  • Nike’s and flip flops

  • SOG SEAL pup knife

  • Compressible camping bowl with an aluminum spork

  • Camping Towel

  • Nalgene water bottle

  • Head Lamp

  • Biodegradable wipes

  • Toothbrush/paste

  • Soap and shampoo

  • Deodorant

  • Razor

  • Contacts with solution

  • Febreze

  • Insect Repellent

  • Iphone 6 with a cracked screen – anyone trying to help me upgrade?

  • Headphones

  • Sunglasses

  • Mirror

  • Bible

  • Rising Pens

  • Journal


For the actual World Race I’ll be bringing a couple more things like a laptop, adapter, external hard drive, portable chargers, power strip, various meds, a new day pack, dry bags, carabiners, drawstring bag, pack duffle, better shoes, ear plugs, clothes line, mosquito net, duct tape, Iphone 7 plus (come on ya’ll!), and anything else I think of later!
