Amongst closing down my clinic, moving farm + house, purchasing a place in town, then moving our oldest son to town, as well setting up my new clinic space - I have been training for the Tongoriro Crossing with DadβΊοΈ
We are booked to do it tomorrow!
We are not too sure if the weather will be ok & if we will actually be able to do it; but preparing in all ways none the lessπ
Its a bit exciting.
Just my water to suss now. I have found, rather than drinking large amounts (& needing to p*e all the timeπ€£) That smaller amounts of fluid with electrolytes are really great!
I have been using the Two Islands brand. They come in little individual packs (The pink sachets you can see) They are yum & ok to use when I am fasting too, as they have no sugar.
Got avo, quinoa + brown rice, tuna & almonds for my meals/snacks. Might get some barley sugars too.
Got a bunch of different layers - The weather is very changeable. So prepared for everything. Plus a few other bits n bobs in my pack.
Most importantly (well not really, but really) Also got my coffee cup βοΈ Cause Dad will make us a cuppa on one of our stopsπ
One of the coolest things about this is of course getting to do it tomorrow - But it has actually been everything leading up to it. All the walks Dad & I have done together, as well as life chats while walking, txts & planningπ
Anyway, better carry onβΊοΈ
