Long Distance Walkers Association
United Kingdom
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 8 พ.ย. 2018
The Long Distance Walkers Association is a national governing body for walking and rambling in England, Scotland and Wales and offers members a variety of walking services.
The Association's Local Groups host challenge walks where entrants can walk distances ranging from 15 - 50 miles most weekends and with the flagship 100 event taking place once a year. The challenge events are unique and provide magnificent value for money for entrants. Entrants will often receive a breakfast at the start, excellent food choices at the various checkpoints and a meal at the finish, and all for a fraction of commercial walking / running events.
In addition, each Local Group offers provides its members with a range of social walks where members can meet like minded people and enjoy a walk in the countryside.
The LDWA is the only organisation to have listed every long distance route in the UK and further details can be found at www.ldwa.org.uk

"We keep signing back up. So why?" asks a participant at the start of this atmospheric insight into the Long Distance Walkers Association's gruelling flagship challenge. Many return each year to attempt to walk or run 100 miles in a weekend, non-stop. "We're all totally mad. Which is great," says veteran Jill Green. For others, it goes deeper. This rediscovered film was shot in 2017 on the North York Moors 100 and is re-published here, courtesy of its producers.
