What about our own Fetcheveryone walk, run or jog the wall and camp out? Obviously carrying our kit unless we have a very kind 'mule'.

Apparently the infrastructure is magnificent; I'd rather pay £222 for a well-organised race than pay even a penny for a poorly-organised race.

I'll get round to Hadrian's Wall sometime, possibly after I retire. It couldn't be much closer to where I live.

Or I could provide car support/luggage transfer for a Fetch effort :)

Mule? It's yaks up here ;) (Accommodation and transfers to the start and finish of each section wouldn't be out of the question.)

Something worth serious consideration, if folk are genuinely interested. I'm sure VP would want to take part too.

Lol, it would certainly be an experience and I have actually looked at it before but......

transfers to the start and finish? How many tandems do you have v'rap? Accommodation? Do you have a lawn large enough for 40 two man tents that everyone is going to bring up there?

40? I'm not actually planning to stage an alternative The Wall Ultra for a load of randoms. Apart from anything else, churning all that yak milk into butter would be a full time job.

I was thinking maybe a carload. A small carload. And one lawnful of tents.
