What is the Warrior Yomp?
The Warrior Yomp (WY) (Yomp is a British Commando term for a long-distance march) is a new concept for the USA and is one of the toughest events you can find.
WY will be taking place on the 28-29 September 2024 alone on the C&O Canal trail of Washington DC and Maryland starting and finishing at Gravelly Point. Teams tackle the challenge over 50miles (gold) in 24 hours over the tough terrain of the C&O Canal. You can also sign up for the silver or bronze distances (38 and 25 miles respectively).
Why Take Part?
Sign up with friends, family, and colleagues to experience an unforgettable weekend while raising money for wounded, ill, and injured (WII), caregivers, active-duty veterans, and their families. Whichever distance you choose, you will get to test both your physical and mental limits while trekking through some truly breathtaking scenery.
Don’t worry if you don’t have a team, any individuals or pairs will be grouped with individuals of similar abilities. Check out our Facebook page to connect with others who will be Yomping the amazing trail.
