Hello everyone, for context I am 17M and will be 18 during the time of of the expedition. I have challenged myself and been training my ass off the last 4 months to hopefully summit mont blanc and gran Paradiso(both guided ofcourse) and I was(still am) a muay thai athlete for 3 years and I have no mountaineering experience
This is my training/records:
•Half marathon in sub 7min/km pace
•Going up and down a flight of stairs for 1-2 hours with a 12kg pack
•10K in 52 mins
•weights(squats, lunges, core, etc)
I live in a city(would’ve loved to live in the mountains but it is what it is) but there are some desert hikes in my country.
My questions here are:
\-How underprepared am I?
\-Any good and cheap travel locations to train?
\-What are my goals I aiming for in terms of training?
And before you say it yes I understand Mont blanc is not a joke especially for a beginner, but that is why I am here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
