When it comes down to an ITT of the Tour Divide Route #tourdivide , break these four items into percentages of importance: Training, Gear Choices, Mental Toughness, and Luck
JayP: Training...25% - You will be training the whole time and gain fitness down the road. You don't want to be peaking at the start but towards the middle...
Gear Choices...15% - I always think back to the days of Shackleton or the Buffalo Soldiers. The gear they had, or lack of gear, did not seem to stop them.
Mental Toughness...50% - If your head is not into it your body will not be either. I like to use the term "strong mind" instead of "mental toughness".
Luck...10% - As a karma type of guy...one makes their own luck. I also look to answer this as never looking for good luck, just not wanting bad luck. Our own lines and decisions will ultimately feed us the outcome or experience. We are responsible for our own adventure and we do control it, no matter the weather or luck.
