[QUOTE="copepod, post: 821104, member: 21372"] I specialise in doing whatever it takes to keep people moving in the hills / dales / moors / fells etc, whether that be drinking water supply, spraying runners with cool water in hot weather, undressing cold wet people when they get back to village halls or tents nearly hypothermic, replacing with warm dry clothing and making them drink hot sweet tea / coffee / soup etc, but foot care is needed more than anything. Started decades ago, when I was a Guide / Ranger / Sea Ranger, young explorer then leader on BSES Expeditions to Greenland, Svalbard, Canada, Chile, Falklands, South Georiga, and other organisations to Costa Rica twice, Indonesia, Australia etc, adventure races & ultra races throughout UK, Belgium, Iceland, Poland & Portugal. If I find a spare weekend, then pork scratchings on each of the three peaks of Yorkshire Dales sounds like a good idea. But I work or race most weekends already. If you haven't seen already these events, you might consider: Trail Rush Sheffield, 24.5km run with 700m ascent on Round Sheffield Walk route, 79% off road, on Sun 24th May: [URL]http://www.trail-rush.com/[/URL] with injinji socks as prizes for first 3 in each age category [I'm working, probably setting out markers before / after, plus setting up event village in Graves Park] Pennine 39 or 26, Teesdale area, on Sat 18th July, requires navigation skills [URL]http://www.nav4.co.uk/events/pennine39/[/URL] [I'm competing, not yet decided which distance] Berghaus Trail Chase, North York Moors, on 8th / 9th Aug [URL]http://www.berghaustrailchase.com/[/URL] [I'm working like last year ,so hoping I can be tail runner, collecting flags from trails] [/QUOTE]
