Race Rules and Compulsory Kit
Proper preparation—mentally, physically, and medically—is absolutely critical for an event of this magnitude. In addition, you must ensure you meet the minimum kit requirements. It’s equally important to invest in high-quality gear that will withstand the challenges and last throughout your adventure.
Failure to prepare adequately or carry the correct gear could result in serious injury or, in extreme cases, even death. Please take this responsibility seriously.
