Organiser's Description

Two one-day mountain marathon events where you return to HQ each day. Take part on one or both days. If you enjoy running in the mountains and like the notion of taking part in a mountain marathon, this event is an ideal introduction. It's also suitable for those who've already competed in an MM and simply want to get in some training. Teams of two navigate to a number of checkpoints set out on the mountain; there are two classes: linear event - visit a predetermined set of checkpoints in a specific order as quickly as you can; score event - visit as many checkpoints as you can in a given time. From the Dan Yr Ogof Caves campsite, Abercrave.
