Dropped another 0.6kg since last Friday; that's a total of 2.7kg down in 2 weeks - only 2.3kgs to go now :-)
The training is kinda, sorta just starting to ease off now ahead of my next great adventure which begins on Wednesday-
Tue: 60mins bike session (30sec sprints)
Wed: 60min strength session (lower body)
Thu: 75mins hike w/18kg pack at Glenbrook (6.08km). Hard work but I felt strong walking up & down (and down & up again) the causeway at Glenbrook with the pack. Due to my injury & ill-health over the last few months, my prep for Aconcagua hasn't been ideal. So I've decided to hire a porter to carry my share of the loads (which is likely to be 20+kg) for probably 3 days of the expedition so I don't tire myself out early & blow my shot at the summit. Although this session was short, it was the strongest I think I've ever felt walking back up from the causeway at Glenbrook with a heavy pack - a much needed confidence boost at the moment!
Fri: 50mins strength session (upper body)
Time to get back to the packing. Still trying to work out how on earth to get 25kg+ of gear & equipment to Argentina without getting hit with excess baggage charges...
