I find when I go off to big events I over pack (galore). Having said that, I’ve never been caught without anything and it’s me people come to for more gear. Ironman for me is the main event of the year when it comes to logistics. Cameras have to be in good nick with plenty of batteries, lenses and other gear, but you are also out there for 14 hours so you need to have your gear all together (Chairs, Rain gear, food, water etc….).
I am hoping we can do some different stuff this year. James has mentioned another remote from the race announcers tower and some shooting at dusk. These sound great so I’ve been typically over-thinking what’s involved. I admit, I’ll find it hard to not push for something challenging, however these also mean low keeper rates and more post frustration, so I see the balance that’s required.
Aaaah well, back to packing.
