What I changed after realizing my bug out bag was too heavy

At one point, I packed my bag with everything I thought I might need and it quickly became too heavy to realistically carry for long distances. I went back through it and started removing anything that did not serve multiple purposes. And now it is lighter, more practical and something I can actually move with if I have to.
 
Nothing like a heavy pack to teach you what really matters
 
I did a similar purge last year. My bag weighed a good 45 pounds and I quickly realized I couldn't even run a mile with it. I pared it down to 25 and now I can actually move
