Ultra-runner’s Guide to Lightweight Trekking

Actionable backpacking tips for beginner hikers

Back packing, hiking, walking and trail tips from a ex-British-army physical training instructor, an orienteering champion and an ultra-marathon runner. Throughout my backpacking adventures I have completed the following; the marathon des sables (the worlds toughest footrace - 7 days in the Sahara desert), Hadrians wall, C2C - coast to coast, JOGLE (John O groats to Lands end), round rotherham 50 ultra, thames path ultra, and many many others.

Here is where you will find useful tips and tricks from; lightening your back pack, map reading skills, using a compass, hiking on long trails, how to setup your tent, how to filter water and much more. 

I will be adding easy to follow useful tips and tricks and also some reviews of equipment from hiking and back packing companies.
