Bag weighed in at 9.9 kilos approx 23 lbs which means there is 6:1 bag to weight ratio. To give an idea of how it compares to other runners, my mate Gab has a 10:1 ratio so in a self-supported race situation like this being bigger is better in a way.
The course looks to be extremely challenging. In addition to rocky undulating terrain and hot humid climate, we will have to contend with razorsharp spinoflex grass and potential snake, croc and spider hazards. Hmmm
We set off in half hour for the first campsite and start racing tomorrow.
