[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1613860, member: 97414"] First run of spring with Fanny/ Back-pack,,, 7 lbs over 10 Miles / 16 kms on the flats. 1:32 minutes,,, Oh Yha,,, that's good since my 9 cashes are normally in the 7 km zone spread out,,, that about 1 hour per unit,,, pretty good for a middle age fellow that needs to drop 20 lbs,,, Ha. That's The game plan. I was going to go with just the hip pack this year, but the plan changed to the combination hip/ Back-pack since it spreads out the limited goods evenly so I can gain more flexibility,,, tighter configuration at keeping things secure to the body,,, I can see a few extra things I need on these hikes... The stuff that a person chooses to pack for the limited comforts of each outing,,, distance and timing dictates what gets packed,,, so 7 lbs is frugal as 12 to 14 ish lbs is realistic. Of course I won't know this till I put on some more Miles. Tomorrow is the 20 mile,,, hopefully by Friday I'm into the 30,,, not that I want to,,, its the decision that I have to,,, that way I can reach the 30 km set-up in better shape. LOL. Then sleep for 2 days. Ha Old fat guys rule you know [/QUOTE]
