At the last 10Peaks™ event organised by Ourea Events in the Brecon Beacons, a series of events led to untreated water being supplied to some of the participants at one of the aid stations. As the Race Director, this has caused me to do some serious reflecting on our standard operating procedures, and in the interests of transparency and with a strong desire to share some learning points, I am now writing this article.

We are delighted to confirm that Kong Adventure will be taking over the organisation of 10Peaks™ The Lakes and 10Peaks™ Brecon Beacons with immediate effect.

The popular ultra-running 10Peaks events, that take place in the Lake District and Brecon Beacons each year, have a new organiser after a transfer of ownership by co-owners Mark Bottomley and Paul Smith to Ourea Events with immediate effect.
