About the event
****EVENT CHANGE - ONE DAY ONLY!****
Due to injury (Jenny has sustained a nasty ankle sprain) we have decided to offer our signature Trail Skills Workshop as a theory day for one event only, at a reduced cost. This is a great opportunity not only to gain essential trail running skills, but also to get expert coaching input on your running. The Trail Skills Workshop is normally £85; we're offering this day for £50.
Our sessions for the day will include:
how to plan your trail adventures - map reading, route plotting, pace and time estimation, terrain knowledge and compass use.
kit and safety - learn the essentials of hill safety, and, in an interactive session, put together the ideal kit list for your adventures.
training - an introduction to training theory and how to map out and build your own training plan, for any distance from 5k to ultra.
Q&A - your chance to ask any running questions (none too big, too small or too silly!) in a small, friendly group.
We'll do all of this in a beautiful local venue, accompanied by tea, coffee, pastries and snacks (supplied by us). Just bring some comfy clothes and your packed lunch, and we're all set.
What experience do I need?
Since this is an indoors, theory day, you don't need any experience at all! Curiosity and interest are all that's required.
