Why you need it

Compulsory gear is called on the forecast.

Many trail runs set mandatory kit by conditions. The Otter runs four weather protocols, each changing the equipment you must carry; know which one you’re likely packing for before race week.

A race crosses several forecasts.

The start town and the finish town can be a day’s ride apart. What matters is the weather at the kilometre you’ll actually be at, at the hour you get there.

Night is part of the race.

Endurance events run into the dark. Where night catches you, and what the temperature does when it falls, decides lights, layers and pace.
