LEJOG 2019 - My 3 Favourite Gear Items

A short video discussing my favourite three gear items from my 2019 Land's End to John O' Groats hike. All three of these items were purchased from Decathlon outdoor suppliers.

Kit List for my Scottish National Trail hike

I only occasionally buy expensive items of walking or camping gear as I do not backpack in winter conditions and I feel that many of the more expensive brands are over-hyped so tend to look for good quality, middle range kit that in most cases does the job just as well. The most 'expensive' items were my trail runners made by La Sportiva but these were purchased at sale price so the price, although not cheap, wasn't excessive. The other items that I spent reasonable amounts on were my tent, sleeping bag and waterproof jacket. For this trip the main difference from the previous years equipment was the addition of a new tent. I'm not going to list every item I took but here are the main items and my views on their effectiveness having used them on the trip.
