In October 2009, a group of former UK services personnel co-ordinated a charity event requiring participants to race over 30 miles of Exmoor whilst carrying 30 lbs. This is the now the forth year that teams of 5 will trek across Exmoor - with 30 lbs on the back of each person - with all the money raised coming to aid the work of The Royal British Legion so we are very keen to make it a bumper year.
