If you think that come SHTF you are gonna jock up in all your kit and be a death-dealing one man army, you're an idiot - izzyscout
Just spent a week+ on holidays in Newfoundland... did a pile of hiking all over the rock. I am so happy that I took my good shoes along. There are some amazing trails, to see some stuinning scenery. Without quality footwear... we couldn't have gotten in to a lot of places
I do remember reading of that journey. I think...
It is, of course, obvious that speed, or height of fall, is not in itself injurious ... but a high rate of change of velocity, such as occurs after a 10 story fall onto concrete, is another matter.
One of the things they dont talk about when humping, is the mental daze you can slip into and not even realize it when going longer distances. (20+ miles) As a former Marine and now current Army, Ive done MORE than my fair share of humping, and can tell you two things will be a definite. . . . (1) You will fall into the mental daze after youve humped 15 or more miles carrying 75+ pounds of weight, (2) you will be surprised how far you can push your body, you will never know until you try.
Something that needs to be addressed - Athlete's foot. If you don't have it you'll get it. Forget all the expensive creams and stuff and use the natural method (experience says it's the quickest cure also). If you don't know what the natural cure is ask some former Grunts - they'll tell you and swear by it - so will you if you have the need and try it.
Dieing of anticipation, what is the natural remedy... unless i already know it... I wont be the one to mention it and be wrong though

Pee on it
True,it's the Urea.

yep!
or if you're dehydrated too. gasoline, kerosine, alcohol, etc. all work. Not necessarily the 'best' thing. but in a pinch... they work!!!
I keep a small bottle of everclear around (huge resistance to drink), just for things like this, and coldsores.
POW, they're gone!!!
Sigh... I figured it was that but i wasnt about to be the weird one...
