    Hello James, your videos are superb and this leg was an incredible knock. I had to postpone my South Downs walk last year after a bike accident, however I intend to go this year probably mid June. A couple of questions if you can help me. How far from the Blackcap trig point did you camp on this leg. I see on the map there is a sharp right turn to head down towards Lewes, I take it that was the sign post you missed? Also how long did it take for you to get from Littleton Farm campsite to the Riverside tea rooms? Thank you for sharing your hiking experiences, they are certainly a great help to me

    Thanks for the tips James, very useful, I'm doing it in September. I totally agree on the ultralight thing, I'm aiming for around 13kg which I train with, including a chair, as I'm nearly 60 and that is something I have come to really value having. I've done the Haute route in Switzerland so I know what to expect with steep climbs and false summits. I'm really looking forward to this one, it's right up my strasse.

    Food / energy estimates. For each hour you are hiking, you will need approximately 300Kcals in addition to your "base metabolic rate" this is how much energy you need if you were to lay on the couch all day. There are many calculators online to find your BMR. (~15Kcals per pound of body weight) Most adult men will need 3000-3500Kcals for each day. Those dehydrated meals are usually 350-450Kcals each. Do the math.

  • @TimmyBobinson
    @TimmyBobinson 9 місяців тому

    Food tips: - Jars of peanut butter in plastic pots. - Stash a cache by car in a hidden place by car before you start your trip. - Get someone to meet you on your trip to drop of supplies. - Order a delivery food item to a location on a map that a scooter can reach. - "Carb load" before you leave. Google it. - Dehydrated foods. You can add water at many locations. - Oat packets for morning high energy. Finally - if you are feeling beaten, get a taxi into a village and book a room for a night.
