Walker Information

All walkers are to assemble at Walesby Forest and have their equipment checked at their allotted booking in time.

Any team member who wishes to retire must do so at a checkpoint where ever possible. Transportation will be provided to take you back to the Walesby Forest site. Group leaders are not permitted to pick up walkers from checkpoints or anywhere on the route.

If, in the opinion of the organisers, a walker is considered unfit to continue, then they will be asked to retire at that checkpoint.

All walkers will be asked to complete a Full Medical Form giving details of any medical conditions, medication, doctor details and home contact information. This form must be completed and brought to the Booking Office on arrival. Medical Form contents are confidential and will be destroyed once the event is completed.

All walkers are advised to download the ‘What3words’ app to their smartphones via the app store or google store which can be used to confirm your location to 3m2 in the event of an emergency (Optional).

Finally – in all matters, the organisers' decision is final.
