Backpacking Philopshy 2

Backpacking is a the ultimate test of endurance and sanity.

Endurance

You might think running a 42km marathon is a test of endurance,
Try walking,running,hiking, for 4 months and about 4000km..
That's what a real backpacker does, and that's endurance.

Sanity

If you have been alone before, you know what it feels like.
Alone for 1 hour, you will feel nothing.
Alone for 10 hour, you would feel lonely.
Alone for 1 day, you would start to imagine things.
Alone for 1 week, you would be afraid of the littlest sound.

That's what you might encounter during a backpacking trip.
Some people might be alone throughout their trip, that's 1 month, 2 months or even more.

That's really a test for sanity.

Increase your endurance and you Sanity level.
Go BACKPACK!!
