Gear list for Race through Poland
The expected finish was under 4 days, but in the end, it took about 4 and a half. This meant one more night out than expected, but I had heavily anticipated that this could happen, so charging wasn't an issue. It wasn't supposed to rain much, so I didn't worry too much about heavy waterproof gear. Instead, I brought a few pieces just in case for the cold, so I wouldn't freeze to death in some Slovak valleys.
Looking back, I was very satisfied with the gear. I didn't use everything, but it was mostly emergency items. I might organize the space in my packs better next time, because it occasionally happened that I couldn't find something.
