Final words on running the Hardmoors Series

Keep a firm eye on the weather the week leading up to the event.

Wearing and taking the correct kit is paramount to the enjoyment of the day… is there anything worse than being too cold or too hot?

Try out any new food/kit before the event… it works both ways - imagine not having g enough of something that has worked wonders on your energy levels and wishing you had more!
