Ultralight Backpacking Kit I’m Taking On A 500-Mile Challenge | Will’s World

Just 6kg? OM editor Will goes through the kit he's chosen for his mega FKT attempt this September

At the time of writing, Will is just a few weeks away from setting off on a +500 mile challenge. He’ll be trying to run a route that takes in ALL of Wales’s mountains – that’s 190 he’ll have to get up and over. And he’ll be doing it solo and self-supported, camping out pretty much the entire way. As you can expect, he’s put a lot of thought into the kit he wants to take with him. Everything in this video, he says, will be coming with him, along with a few unseen extras like spare clothing, toiletries and food.
