These
weekends are open to anyone, but we suggest that you
will get the most out of them if you are happy running
up to 10km, or even a half marathon. If you are in any
doubt as to if they will suit, then get in touch to
get advice from one of the coaches.
As
well as enjoying a great weekend of fell and trail running,
we aim to teach you the key safety skills for route
planning and mountain running, with a focus put on the
selection of appropriate equipment and how to develop
your training plans for trail running.
Don't
worry if you have never run on mountain trails before,
as you will pick up the skills quickly with expert coaching
and guidance. All you need is to be fit for regular
running, to have a sense of humour, and to love the
outdoors. We will teach you all the skills you need.
