MOUNTAIN MARATHON KIT LIST

Mountain marathons, trail races or fell races usually require you to take a certain amount of kit and equipment with you to keep you safe when out on the course. This will be outlined in the Mandatory Kit List.

Here at OMM, we design clothing and equipment for the purpose of mountain marathons. Fast & light protection for even the most extreme weather that won’t weigh you down (too much).
