What is the role of a Support Crew?

Your Support Crew are gorgeous friends and family who are available on Event Day to cheer you on and provide love, food, treats, gear, fresh socks or shoes or anything else you might need. 

This could be as small as doing a coffee run, or as big as planning a full sit-down picnic with candles, foot massages and chocolate-dipped strawberries. 

We believe a support person/crew really is necessary for the 50km event and highly recommended for first time 30km and 20km teams.

We recommend giving your support crew a tub for each trekker in your team, with a change of clothes, shoes, socks, favourite treats, blister kits and anything else you think you might need on the day but don’t want to carry.
