    Just do it, you'll never improve unless you try. It's an extremely non-judgey environment. I'm unfit AF and it doesn't matter. Everyone was incredibly encouraging last year.

    You'd be amazed how much you can learn by attending. Well worth the money.

    Hi Gillie thanks for the long notice.

    Just to clarify, will "below the ankle" Trail running shoes be accepted Or is it clod hoppers only?

    Less seriously, Dougie seems to be angling for compulsory shorts for the blokes. Are they allowed lycra tights or compression leggings underneath ? To discour age that sort of stuff perhaps hunter competing in full regalia (bullers, all wool swanndrii, green river skinner and pikau) could get a couple of extra bonus shots for score or allow a shortcut on the run.

    @Gillie

    I'm keen.

    Seems like a good goal to work towards to get my fitness back up to par again.

    Managed a 3.6kms walk last night

    Cheers
    Pete

    Oh there's just one competitor who needs to wear the short shorts

    @Bagheera do you normally hunt in your trail running shoes? Also expect the ground to be damp and I will have no hesitation putting the course through mud...

    Normal hunting gear is the requirement - a few people will take advantage where they think they can and not carry a day pack... Again normal hunting gear is required. We accept that some people for a morning hunt won't carry a day pack. I don't know anyone personally that hunts in shoes - most people use boots.

    Gillie, for shooting, I normally wear rubber to avoid spreading diseases from farm to farm.

    Cross will be fine but you'll also have to only use your 22lr...

    I think Vince is the man (again). Just messaged him to confirm mine and @Ginga entry.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
