Load a pack heavy and walk an hour with it

“The first ten minutes the weight is nothing. By the end it has rearranged how you walk, and you understand why every long journey used to be a question of what you could carry.”

The Recipe

  1. Put real weight in a rucksack, books, water, tins you will use later, until it is genuinely heavy but safe on your back.
  2. Walk a full hour with it, out and back, on a route with some hills in it.
  3. Empty it out at home and feel how light you are without it.
