Hike your own hike. I tend toward minimalist these days. I hit a wall about 5 years ago trying to carry the kitchen sink and committed to two things: reducing my pack weight and weight training (in addition to running).

Now a comfortable long weekend on the trail entails a ~20 lbs load, including the clothes I wear.
