Welcome

Welcome to the OMM in the 40th year of our event.

The Original Mountain Marathon company - makers of leanweightTM products inspired by the event which is the forerunner of all adventure racing, the Original Mountain Marathon, founded in 1968. The event was originally known as the KIMM and changed name in 2006 to reflect new ownership and sponsorship.

The ethos of the event is to be totally self reliant, in the wilds, carrying all equipment, no outside support and without GPS or cell phone; your first source of help is your partner and if you retire you are responsible for getting yourselves back to base. Any teams not arriving at the overnight camp are assumed to have camped safely.

In these days of 24/7 contact and total support this is an event to test and indeed help develop toughness and self reliance.
