Mile 558.5 to 566.5 : Willow Springs rd to hwy 58
Mileage : 8
So today i went for a test drive to wor out how best to accommodate cinderella, and it turns out with her strapped to my chest i sweat even more profusely than usual. Hiking with all this is not going to be easy, i was the one that came.up.with the challenge so i suppose i have no-one to think but myself.
Today was the only day i slackpacked, which to hike without a rucksack. The 8 miles, even with cinderella, was bliss. My body took a mile or two to adjust to nite carrying the weight but after that it felt.like i was out for a stroll, it was great. I wish i could do tis more often, but it did sort of feel.like i was cheating. Im glad that i got to do this once, but this will be the only time.
Oh yes, and while you escorted Cinders, I suppose your Fairy Godmother carried your rucksack for those 8 miles.
ReplyDeleteWill had the same over heating problem today carrying Eric strapped to his chest - Cinderella style. At least his chin is fuzz free so perhaps a little cooler than Prince Charming's.
You appear to be modelling yet another v fetching straw hat!
