Last year my husband completed the Oxfam Trail-Trekker. A grueling 100km walk in 30 hours over Yorkshire's toughest terrain. I was one of the support crew for the team of four, and we had to be there for them at every checkpoint, providing motivation, food, and sustenance, Before we even got started communication was key as mobile phone signals were hit and miss along the route.
