TS Day 101

TS Day 101

Mullsjö - Åremma Kvarn

Via Bottnaryd

Monday 18 October 2021

Today I woke up at 4 AM, realising I had fallen asleep with the lamp on and phone in my hand... Then, I slept through my alarm, from 5 AM to 6 AM. But at 6, my alarm rang again AND Lukas called me, so I managed to get up. This is one of my earliest starts ever so I was pretty proud. I was also glad I had slept inside tonight because there had been another frost night.

The reason I had gotten up so early was because the goal today was to get far.

I had fantastic weather today, everything was just beautiful in the morning light and the frost shimmer. I also got to see a deer!

I took some breaks now and then and listened to podcasts, slowly making my way forward. When I got to Bottnaryd I went to the store and bought more food, a drink and ice cream. Then I recycled and took a geocache.

Soon I had another break though, because I needed to fill my water bottle, which I did in Rörsjön's clear water.

Then I just walked.

I passed some houses, and did another stop before sunset to gear up for the darkness and pushed on. Many podcasts and lot of pain later, I finally arrived at Åremma Kvarn where I pitched my tent on a flat grass spot. I called Lukas while changing into my sleeping clothes and the moment we hung up I fell asleep. That's how tired I was! Didn't even eat again or brush my teeth like I had meant to...
