That's Lyth 2022 (and the Anytime Challenge also rolls on)
We are pleased to announce that we will be hosting our 40th That's Lyth event on Sunday 30 January 2022. The event is now available to book via SiEntries link here.
The event will look a little different this year as we have introduced our own covid safe approach:
-
Limit entries to 180, with same entry fees as 2020 (no event in 2021)
-
Prioritise LDWA with entry date of 1 October and Non LDWA entry date of 1 November
-
Staggered the start with 10 entrants every 5 minutes between 8am and 9.30am
-
Collect data from entrants about whether they are walkers - walk-runners - runners so that we can set them off in the correct order with walkers starting first to ensure completion in day light
-
No access to the Start hall apart from to use the toilets and that bags cannot be left
-
Food will not be buffet style but packed individually and probably served outside the three on route checkpoints. That the three on route checkpoints will have toilets and inside space for first aid emergencies or anyone really cold.
-
Entrants will be allowed inside at the finish, with a limited number of socially distanced chairs/tables in the hall. Soup to be served with a 20 minute limit per entrant so we can maintain a steady flow of reduced numbers.
-
Tallies will not be handled by marshals but numbers will be collected verbally and visually at each checkpoint
-
Use to be made of the Pacer system at start, finish and Witherslack.
-
Hand sanitiser and masks to be available as minimum PPE for all our marshal volunteers with access freely to the halls to keep warm.
-
Certificates to be sent out electronically rather than collected on the day (we will see)
-
And hopefully - there will be birthday cake - carefully served individually wrapped and available under wraps to view at the start.
