Per Wendy B, who Knows About These Things.
- Shoes
- Your 2 t-shirts: team shirt, Portland to Coast

- Socks - lots of 'em!
- Shorts/walking pants
- Shirt(s) for walking in (you can wear team shirt for the finish and photos)

a warm jacket or fleece - it is always cold and drizzly at the finish, no
matter how hot inland

your towel is...)

- Personal foot care - I have Band-Aid Blister Block. Bring your own other stuff.
- Food: Just enough to snack along the course for 30 hours,
but NOTHING that requires refrigeration
- Drivers license, medical card, AAA card
- Money for any needs

ginger root capsules, they really work for me, you can get them anywhere
