Make your run an adventure and prepare for all the fun that lies ahead by planning ahead for the perfect route and the conditions you need to be aware of. Good preparation gives you a better idea of ​​what to pack. The Strive Mountain Pack has a generous packing space and the Silva Embrace System ensures a good fit regardless of pack volume. The running backpack will hug your body and have a tight fit so you can run smoothly.

The trick when planning a long run is to pack reasonably. You don't want to run with more weight than necessary. At the same time, that little bag of candy, a deodorant, or a little book with crosswords can be just what keeps you motivated to keep going when the run feels tough.

If you run between mountain huts, there may be fresh water to wash your underwear by hand. Otherwise, you can wash what you need in a nearby lake or river. Choose base layer garments in materials such as merino wool or bamboo, they do not smell and dry quickly.

Pack base layers, headbands or a thin hat and also gloves. Although the days can be warm thanks to the sun, the evenings often get chilly when the sun goes down. And remember, don't forget the headlamp. Make sure to fully charge it!

Another important thing is to pack a pair of thin and light slippers or sandals. Your feet will be grateful to walk around in something other than your running shoes after a day of many miles on any surface. Also, be sure to bring sunscreen, mosquito spray, and other things that will make your adventure more pleasant.
