ENTRIES CLOSE:  8 April at midnight, or once 200 entries are achieved, which-ever happens first.

Routes, route marking and self navigation options:

Although we mark the routes there is never a guarantee that they will stay marked as intended – people, animals, wind can sometimes interfere and change markers or even remove markers. As an alternative, we will email you the ,gpx route file [a week before the run] for the route you entered for. You can download that on your gps device and follow the route as a back-up. We also use the Alltrails app which you can use and access that specific route which we create. There is a free version or the “pro” version which you pay for annually but can then create/download a route for “offline” use. Whatever the method is you might use, “learn how to operate and understand it”

• All runners “must” carry a 100% waterproof rain jacket with a hood and long sleeves.
• Runners must be self sufficient and carry enough water and food to sustain them for the entire route. There are no water tables on route – please ensure you are self sufficient. There might be some fresh mountain water on parts of the routes but will only be known when we mark the route – in that case we will share that information.
