I remember doing my gold in Wales. I have found memories of the trip, but I think that's because I'm repressing a good portion of it. The rest consists of flashes of hills, freeze dried food, hills, fights with team mates, hills, exhaustive leg pain, and a weather system so foul we took turns praying to different storm gods for mercy. Also I think there were a few hills we had to hike over.
i did it at the weekend 22 miles :| never walked so much in me life an i lst me phone at the campsite an carried a hole tent on me bill an me rucksack weighd 4 an a half stone an im only 5 ft :( an a duck quacked all nite aan the horses neighed all time an if i see if i have walk through anothe r field in me life i mite die :( an the campin place was am mile from the toilet an me mate needed it in the middle of the nite :(:( so im lookin for a new phone now :D:D:D:D x
LMFAO my silver practice was immense. Stuck up a 200m hill in a blizard, snow up to the knees, one hand frozen coz i lost my glove. Absoloute torture. And i loved every minute of it :D
i did bronze today, it was hell, i couldnnt finish it coz of asthma attack, how come u guys seem so cheery, were u not rlli hurting?!

we shared the tent out
so if 2 of us were sharing a tent
we'd take half each to make it fair
my bag was 1 and a half stone
that was for bronze lol

Here, girls get it easier than boys. No need to carry tents.
What did you cook with? Trangia kits?
Good stuff. I would not carry that much, though. However, a large bag is always good, because I do get a little disorganized.
