A request for communications support has been made by the ToughRuck group
for their event in Concord, Massachusetts on Sunday, April 19. This route
will start in Concord and go into Lexington by way of the Minuteman
National Park Trail, also known as the Battle Road Trail. The 1,000
participants will be carrying full military packs and will complete
multiple loops to do a total of 26 miles. Public safety radio systems are
unable to cover the full route.<br><br>
We are looking for operators to be at water and aid stations along the
course. The event starts at 7:20AM and runs for nine hours. Two meter
repeaters will be used. <i>Yes, this is the day before the marathon.</i>
Final details are in preparation. <br><br>
Additional information about this event and a route map can be found at
