Leaving Monday the 28th 2010

Even though this isn't an unsupported trip, I will be still attempting a self supporting one. I am taking all my food to start with for the entire 500 miles. I have about 25-28 days of food depending on how I do with supplementation. I am taking into consideration about 20-25 lbs lost so I need to stay in touch with how my body does under these conditions. This is a test run as I know if something happens this time I have help. My food is of the most basic type. I have oatmeal/brown sugar/raisin/protein powder for breakfast. Trail-mix and other dried foods for snacks and lunch. 2 400 calorie protein bars for dinner. My plan at this point is to hope to supplement with some fish and berries among other things along the way. This may turn out bad for me but I have to try. I absolutely know I can make it in 25 days but since I am traveling with two others that may pose the issue, as I really can't/don't want to go longer than 28 days. My training is done and I have to leave it to my body to get me through this and have to put on my game face. I know that mental preparedness is 90% of facing any challenge. Facing the unknown willingly isn't for everybody but has always been for me. I will try to post to facebook as I can via my cell.
