Tor des Glaciers

 

Tor des Glaciers 2022



less is better.. take less food and cloths (especially gloves)

12l salomon plus a belt was plenty.

Tailwind worked well between huts.. compliment with a few gels, dried fruit/meat between Huts.

mainly walking so easy solid foods.. cereal bars dont do it.. 

At huts.. relax, let the volunteers help you.. get lots of food + coke, coffee, tea

At lifebase.. 10mins shut eye if needed.. shower (do not take all your stuff), change to clean cloths.. eat, repack and go.. 

Sleep max 2hrs overnight in huts.. then get a couple of 30mins on the trail while the sun is out.

Plan plan plan the timings.. this caused too much stress when we thought our race over as we would get timed out at donnas.. plan plan plan each section.

always wear 2 pairs of socks.. the one time i only had one on i got a blister.. just keep the old smelly one on.. (toe sock+drymax)

Run solo or teamed up?
