I have been sent the following :
I am organising an ultramarathon in the Falkland Islands next April (yes - I know it is the same time as the JK!) and even if it doesn't appeal to you I would really appreciate it if you could forward this message on to anyone you think might be interested.
The Event:
The Falklands Ultra is an ultramarathon in the South Atlantic islands taking place next April 3rd-13th, 2020. You don't need to be a hardened ultra-athlete to take part, for many participants it will be their first endurance event and an opportunity to challenge themselves and find out what they are capable of in an amazing corner of the world with a fascinating history and awe-inspiring landscapes.
Broadly following the routes taken by British Forces in 1982 to liberate the Falkland Islands the course covers 100 miles (or 100km) in a single stage from Goose Green to Stanley via Ajax Bay, San Carlos, Mount Longdon, Two Sisters, Wireless Ridge and Tumbledown.
A marathon option is also available.
There is more info at falklandsultra.com or have a browse of the brochure at
bit.ly/FalklandsUltraBrochure1-2.
This is going to be a truly unique event - not many races have a Chinook helicopter wreck as a checkpoint!
If you have any questions just send me a message or give me a call, contact details are below.
With kindest regards,
Andy
