Can you do the Commando Shuffle? 

The 999 Commando Challenge is back again this year under the new name 'The Commando Shuffle' and teams are invited to take part in the, which takes place on Saturday 1st October, 2011.

The event is a 30 mile trek through Dartmoor National Park, with the option to carry 32lbs of kit (not including water). The event follows the route of the Royal Marines final Commando Test, the '30 miler', and is run by serving and former Royal Marines Commandos, who are there to encourage, as well as put teams through their paces on one of the most gruelling military courses in the western world.

Last year's event saw both the Fire Fighter's Charity and the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund receiving £2,000 each from the event.
