Mourne Mountain Marathon
Description
NATURE OF the EVENT
The Mourne Mountain Marathon is a competitive event for teams of two. At the start of each day teams are presented with a course of varying numbers of control markers which are identified by 6-figure map references. They must visit each control in the prescribed order but may chose their own route between each marker. A feature of the event is the overnight camp at which all teams must be self-sufficient with everything being carried throughout the two days of competition.
The precise location of the start/finish which is changed from year to year will be as shown in the race programme which will be posted to competitors in the second week preceding the date of the event.
N.B. The courses are planned using the new Mournes Map 1:25000, published in 2004 by the Ordnance Survey, every competitor is advised to be in possession of this map available from decent outdoor pursuits shops in Northern Ireland or by ordering one with your event entry.
