Urgh. Failure!

I pulled out of today. It was because of a) how hot it was today (something like 36c), and b) the fact that I had no way to stay hydrated. I could have carried a bottle of water, but that would have gotten annoying. I tried my backpack, but it was too heavy and bounced around a lot without a waist strap, so that was no good either. I'm going to be in Adelaide next weekend so that's out too, but the following week I'm going to buy a CamelBak water backpack and see how that goes. They're pretty well priced, so that's good.
