Try this and see how long it takes you to get out of your house with your gear.

LEN : Need to Practice Practice Practice.......... Try this and see how long it takes you to get out of your house with your gear.....How many seconds to grab and go? try setting an alarm clock and when it goes off, go..... don't forget to time it!

see where you can make improvement.....

Like I (Mike) always say, how long a minute is depends on whether you're waiting for someone/thing or rushing to get to them/it.

A minute can be a whole fire fight and every second counts.....

... & feel like an eternity.

I am almost 70, it would take me a good while.

Thank you for the reminder. I need to repack my bugout bag and gather essential documents.

If on foot, I recommend having a small backpack, not a hiking backpack with tent and all that. You can't appear as having a nice collection of gear and food to steal. Be low profile, slip in and out of crowds and towns. Don't look too 'together.' Look poor. Do you know what I mean?

Thanks.
