They have to make sure everyone signs this as they can't check every single persons fitness levels. The point is though, that they need you to sign that YOU are responsible for anything that happens to you during this walk. If you didn't sign it and you felt ill during the walk, or someone hurt you, you fell over and hurt yourself etc - it would be a real hassle for them if you try and sue them because you felt it was their responsibility that you didn't get hurt you see. This is also particularly important for people under the age of 16, as you are classed as a child. I also have to admit - I thought walking a load of miles would be really easy - I began training to run it at first but in the end decided to walk as 1 of my team members became pregnant, so I didn't train. It was harder than I thought! Good luck and well done for wanting to take part :)<br><b>References : </b><br> I did a similar walk myself last year for cancer and I can tell you – some people were needing ambulances before they even reached the halfway point!
