- The Lakeland 50 & 100 mandatory kit list is made up of items you MUST carry with you for the duration of the race. Many of the items are for your own safety so my advice is always to ensure you have exactly what you need and that it is fit for purpose - not to just get through kit check. This video features the items I like to take and how I pack them.
The Mandatory Kit List (as shown on Lakeland100.com)
1. Waterproof trousers and jacket. Must be fully waterproof with taped seams (wind / showerproof not acceptable). The jacket must have a hood.
2. Spare base layers, long sleeve top and bottoms. These should be sealed in a bag and only used in emergency situations.
3. Hat and gloves.
4. Map and roadbook (supplied at registration)
5. Compass
6. First aid kit.
7. Emergency food (sealed in a bag to be used only in emergencies).
8. Head torch and spare batteries.
9. Whistle.
10. A back pack or similar to carry all the above.
11. Quality off road running shoes (not road shoes).
12. Mobile phone fully charged.
13. Blanket or survival bag.
14. Solid plastic cup for hot drinks or soup, 2nd cup / bottle or flask for cold drinks, a spork (or similar) for eating food at checkpoints.
In addition to the above I like to take
A GPS Watch - My Coros Apex Pro
AfterShokz Bone Conducting Headphones
A Foot Kit consisting of multiple spare pairs of socks and Squirrels Nut Butter
My own nutrition. Personally I love Veloforte gels & chews.

This was excellent. Thanks Emily. I couldn’t think where to put the maps. Perfect. 😃
Thanks for this! Very helpful 😊
@@michaelcultra4496 you’re welcome! Best of luck with the race 🙌
Thanks, this is super helpful. Especially as I've just had to buy a gecko as my Salomon advance ripped.
@@neilowens67 the Gecko is a great pack! I see so many out an about now and they are a great choice for Lakeland 👍
Very informative. Is there a reason that you do not use a foldable cup?
Ahh so the organisers specify it has to be a solid cup. Possibly due to collapsible cups and the high likelihood of injury with a hot drink. It has been a much debated topic!
