Distance & rewards 2012

In the Four Days Marches one of three different distances is to be walked every day: 30, 40 or 50 km. The following classification is made according to age and gender:
R = Regulation distance
This is the minimum distance participants must walk successfully every day. The minimum distance depends on age and gender.
E = Extended distance
This is the regulation distance, plus (optionally) ten or twenty kilometres a day for four days.
You can use the tables below to calculate the minimum distance you must walk, based on the year in which you were born. 

* For military servicemen the regulation distance is 40 km, providing they carry at least ten kilograms of marching kit.
More information about Distances an Rewards can be found at  the Regulations Distances and Rewards.
