Mountain Marathons

A mountain marathon is an extended fell race over 2 days requiring good navigational skills. There is usually a mandatory list of equipment that must be carried, consisting of tent, sleeping bag, cooking equipment and food, waterproofs and safety equipment.

Depending on the class of the race, there is either a series of checkpoints that must be visited in a certain order or there is a time limit to visit as many points as possible.
