This is the 2nd day of OMM Mountain Marathon Event in Snowdonia with YT legend Andy from ( @BackpackingUK)
Apologies again for the poor audio. Had issues with my wind protector on the GoPro in the strong winds so Ive done my best to reduce as much as possible and have added captions to help. I know it's a little annoying but nothing I can do about it.
Day 2 my cramp had improved after lots of sleep, some really good high calories food and finding my electrolytes in my bag so hydrating properly for Day 2! Perfect.
A massive thank you again to @thefellstore who supported us for this event and provided all our food - it was a god send! From high calories meals, to breakfasts, emergency food, Torq electrolytes and performance powders ad even coffee. We couldn't have done it without you.
They have been kind enough to give all our subscribers 10% off storewide using code "KG10" so do take advantage. This is not an affiliate scheme, it's simply a discount for you and nothing comes back to us. their website is www.thefellstore.com and are a local family company.
What is the OMM?
Held at the end of every October since 1968, ‘The OMM’ is recognised as the gold standard in UK Mountain Challenges. It's a self-reliant 2-day journey through some of the UK’s finest mountain terrain, a new area each year; a true test of mountain craft, resilience & sense of humour.
On the start line, Andy and I were given a map for our chosen course - Medium Score. Once crossing the start line we had to plan our route to find lots of checkpoints finishing at the halfway overnight campsite. This'll had to be my map and compass so no GPS for this one which made it challenging at times. Although really proud with what we achieved!
To complete the race you need to be self-reliant & carry everything you need for the 2 days including the halfway camp. Day 2 you get new checkpoints to find finishing back at the event centre. If you want me to do a gear loadout video or gave any questions feel free to comment below and I'll get straight back to you.
Hope you enjoy the video.
