  • The Mike Wooding Memorial Trophy is a nominated award given to an individual entrant or support volunteer who typifies Mike’s love for the challenge of the Fellsman and who has performed something exceptional and noteworthy during the event. This year the award is presented to Mr Tom Jones. For the last two years Tom has volunteered on the Fellsman, he has never entered the event, but felt he could answer our plea for help in 2015. So for the last two years he has turned up and done whatever was asked of him. Kit Check on Friday night? “No problem!” Help out in the Kitchen? “Sure, what needs doing?” Then on Saturday morning after the start he heads over to Redshaw checkpoint; the best way to describe his role there is as Maitre d’Hotel! Typically he seats an entrant as they arrive, fills water bottles, fetches warm food and drink. He assesses his ‘client’s’ individual needs; cold, dazed or tired, he knows just what to say. If someone is starting to drop into the pit of hypothermia they are wrapped in blankets, encouraged to take on food, given hot water bottles and changed into dry clothes (from Tom’s own kit if you have none left of your own). All this with a smile and a dash of humour. Just remember to lock up your cheese!
  • The John O’Connell Award for Outstanding Services to the Fellsman. This award, first presented in 2011 in memory of former Fellsman organiser John O’Connell, is this year presented to Mr Dave Driver. Dave Driver is the man behind the Felltrack computer system that for the last 8 years has been working behind the scenes tracking Fellsman entrants around the route. For the first event in 2009 the need for internet connectivity meant that only a few checkpoints could transmit data down to HQ at Threshfield and we were still using entrant numbers to check people through; it was not without problems but even then we knew we had something special on our hands. Over the next few years Felltrack worked alongside our existing radio scores message system as Dave worked his magic refining the system to take account of our requests and somehow managing to bring internet access to the most remote of locations. With Dave’s introduction of RFID tags in the traditional Fellsman tally the system finally came into its own and we were finally able to stop the habit of a lifetime and cease transmission of scores messages over the radio. This year Felltrack reached its full potential, we had tally data scanned in from every roadside checkpoint, and a few hilltops besides, and I don’t think a single ‘scores’ message was sent via the radio. Even so, we know Dave has plans to improve the system still further, as well as making every checkpoint Felltrack accessible, and no doubt Felltrack will continue to develop for many years to come. In short, Dave Driver has changed the face of safety on the Fellsman and taken us forward into a new era – outstanding services indeed!
