Advise about warm sleepingbag
Sorry for the delay in answering. The sleeping bag I used in the Arctic Circle was this Rock Empire - Ontario plus. It is a Czech brand. We weighed it and it was 1.7kg.

Runners or trail runners?
@Aptrail I had a similar experience. My asics trail runners proved a disaster for my feet last summer even though I had done plenty of hiking in them back home.
