Each participant must carry his/her own backpack containing food, sleeping gear and other material.

Dave Goes west
Dave Goes West is an experimental adventure / comedy documentary about a man from Derbyshire running 10 marathons in 10 days despite his own physical limitations and lack of proper training. The story of this film began one day in the pub. The film’s Director, Joe O’Connor, asked his old friend Dave if he thought he could run 10 marathons in 10 days. Dave thought about for about three seconds before replying ‘Let’s do this!’

Walks Around Britain – Glen Wyllin / York to Riccall
A first walk which takes in part of the miles of closed railway lines on the Isle of Man, before detouring along part of the island’s coastal path… oh and there’s two beautiful glens along the way too.
Just one part of the massive Trans Pennine Trail, this second walk between York and the village of Riccall is perfect for children as it is flat throughout… and has the added benefit of having scale models of the Solar System along the way…
