I followed the rule " if it fits in your rucksack fine, but if not leave it"
travelling light and fast at the drop of a hat worked for a long time.
All that physical Army training kept me swift of foot and forever propelled searching for the next horizon. I must have walked for years on and off, with a big shaggy coated German Shepherd for company from age 8 weeks to nine years old, he lived on for another five years, out to pasture with another dog and five cats for company at a very old friends place. I am glad I wasn't there when he finally passed, I think it might well have broken my heart, too much of a coward to be there at his end.
