Pass the Gear Check before an ultramarathon. Follow this organized guide to show the mandatory, recommended, hot, and cold kit to ease your nerves on gear packing before your race.
The content is designed for UTMB, CCC, TDS, OCC, and MCC. However, other ultramarathon races would have similar requirements.
This video is designed for the 2022 UTMB. I will update as I see changes. Please also comment for any ideas/revisions so we can all stay knowledgeable.

BACKGROUND
To tackle UTMB's gear requirement, I went through the research to organize my gear to make sure I have everything in place without overpacking. I also created a method to pack the gear for easy access during the race.
I will split the gear into 4 sections - Clothing, Nutrition and Hydration, Materials, and Security.
Each section, I will dive into the Mandatory Gear, Recommended Gear, the Hot Weather Kit, the Cold Weather Kit, and items I used to complete my UTMB CCC experience.
The packing process is also presented to make packing your gear the night before your race as pain free as possible.
I hope this helps your packing and you would have no problem passing the gear check.
