Walkers can be tracked live
Manx Telecom is bringing a high-tech flourish to this year's Parish Walk.
The firm has sponsored the annual 85-mile trek for the past decade, and in recent years offered fans and competitors a variety of ways to connect with the event online.
Observers can track walkers' progress live by visiting manxtelecom.com/parishwalk.
Also making a return is the Pic2Go photography service, which automatically tags entrants' photos on Facebook as they're uploaded.
Manx Telecom's Graham Shimmin - who's also competing this year - says they're committed to the event's future:

Police working with schools to teach children about the dangers of social media
Drivers turning in Douglas Fire Station forecourt leads to 'near misses'
