Head out on the hills for a guided run over the type of terrain you'd encounter on a fell run / fell race. Plus some coaching tips for dealing with uphill, downhill and rough ground.
You don't need to be super fit to take part as the run will be stop / start and done at an easy pace although there will be some hills. (As a guide you should be able to run 10k in 60 mins)
Length of run approximately 8km (5 miles)
You'll also have the chance to ask fell running guide Dave Taylor about any kit advice and what you should take out with you in order to be prepared for anything.
Equipment needed:

- Trail / fell running shoes with good grip.
- Waterproof jacket, hat & gloves (dependent on weather)
