Yes, support crews are strongly advised. They can assist at designated locations. It is recommended they have their own transport and are contactable by mobile phone. Contact details are requested at registration.
Arc 100M runners receive a 30 litre UTMB World Series drop-bag when collecting their race bib. Drop-bags must be taken to the Bag Drop marquee before coach transport to the start. They are taken to the Land's End Aid Station and collected after the race at the main event venue on presentation of the race bib. Only UTMB World Series drop-bags can be used, and poles are not allowed in the drop-bag.
Previous ultra-distance experience is recommended. A UTMB Index of at least 380 is recommended. Large sections are run in darkness, so night running experience is also advised.
