TRAINING NOTE ·
Seven sevens completed!
Mourne Mountains, Northern Ireland · 850 m reported altitude
I finally completed the Mourne 7 Sevens, something that had been on my bucket list all year.
I started pre-dawn to test my night hiking setup and used stream water with the Steripen for the first time, testing the gear as much as myself.
I felt good most of the day, although the final descent off Meelmore reminded me what a long mountain day does to tired quads and feet.
Another unknown removed before Nepal.
