If you suffer an injury or accident that warrants direct medical attention\, the medics will be on hand to provide you with exactly that. Contact numbers and full details of what to do in an emergency will be given to you in the pre-race information packs and again at race registration. Due to the nature of the course\, ie\, some remote and far from roads\, the medics may take some time to reach you\, or potentially be out of contact tending to other runners. In those instances\, you should contact the emergency services on 999 AS WELL AS the race medics. Full instructions on what to do in an emergency can be found in the infopacks. \nKit\n99% of the course is on trail\, therefore\, trail shoes are advised\, particularly given the time of year. There are sections of trail which can become very muddy in wet conditions. The course takes a number of steep ascents and descents\, many of which will become hard going in wet conditions\, particularly as the race progresses. These sections must be negotiated carefully in both the dry and the wet. Given the time of year\, the threat of exposure is very real. Runners must carry the following mandatory equipment at all times. \nThere are many options regarding kits for fulfilling these requirements and those of other events. We stock what we believe to be the best options at our online store available by clicking here. Please ask us if you have any questions. \n\nFully Charged Mobile Phone\, including the numbers for the Race Medic and Race Director (on the number you have given at registration)\nSurvival Blanket: 1.4m x 2m minimum\nWhistle\nWaterproof Jacket: Gore-Tex or similar\, minimum 10000mm+ & must have sealed seams.\nWarm Hat – Beanie Hat or Buff (either is accepted)\nGloves\nLong-sleeved base layer or fleece top – This must be carried separately from the start and kept dry\, for use only in an emergency.
