The kit you use and the clothing you wear can have a huge impact on your challenge experience. So it’s really important that you have the right kit with you. Keeping warm when its cold, and dry when its wet can make the difference between a great challenge, and a miserable one.
We understand that good kit doesn’t come cheap, and shopping around can be time consuming. So we have teamed up with outdoor clothing and equipment specialists to offer you a range of discounted kit, perfectly tailored to your challenge!
