We have amended the program so that This weekend is suitable for both beginners and more experienced runners who would like to improve their running on fell or trail.
If you are a beginner on the fells/trail we will run an 'Introduction to Trail running' session which will include practicing moving on varied terrain, Mud, grass, stone track, on flat and on hills.
Once you are confident we will take you on a group guided run at a pace to suit the group. You will also join the group with Nicky Spinks where you will be taught how to deal with hills. The Nicky Spinks session is suitable for all levels
More experienced runners will have a guided run as a group and take part in Nicky Spinks's Hill training session. This is not hard effort, it's about learning the skills and techniques to deal with ascents and descents on your runs. You will also look at more technical terrain.
Basics of Map reading skills will be taught to anyone who wishes to take part in this session.
