Sounds like you've covered most bases.

Only final tip from me would be that if the slow release food you're planning to take is in the form of energy gels, bars, etc that you've not used before, make sure before the event that your stomach tolerates it during excercise - ideally during your Yorkshire 3 peaks.

Smash it!!

I’ll also be following the kit advice to the letter, have bought a compass, whistle, sitting mat, already have most other stuff like waterproof gear, proper boots, head torch etc but will take your advice on the app and download it.

My pals and I are all in decent shape, and putting in the training hours. We’re doing the Yorkshire 3 Peaks the month before as a practice run too. We’re going on a guided event - the company that arranges it will be leading us and doing the driving.

Cheers for the input
