WATER

Water will be supplied at each checkpoint and at the Race Village. Competitors are required to fill their personal water bottles or bladders from water dispensers provided. Each competitor must manage his/her water needs according to water distribution. Never leave a checkpoint without water - in the event of getting lost; water reserves could be vital.

FOOD

The format is “self sufficiency” – competitors are required to carry their food supplies in their race backpacks. During the stages competitors are required to carry enough food to sustain them for the whole event. Should competitors wish to purchase non-alcoholic drinks, or snacks along the course, then that is permitted. Stopping for restaurant or pub meals is not permitted.

CHECKPOINTS

CP’s will be located roughly every 10 to 15 miles. Bottled water will also be distributed at these points.

MAPS

Competitors are required to bring WATERPROOF versions of Ordnance Survey maps OL1 and OL21. Competitors will not be able to start without these maps, and if they are not WATERPROOF. We also recommend a permanent pen for marking the course.

MOBILE PHONES

The carrying and use of mobile phones during the event is compulsory. Charging facilities will be limited so economic usage of phones is recommended. The Race Organisers will not be held responsible for lack of battery power. All mobile phones must be switched off after 9pm (lights out) on Friday night. For safety reasons, a switched on, fully charged Mobile Phone is an essential part of your kit - IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE!
