This workshop will teach you the necessary skills to be fast, light and self-sufficient so that you can explore areas of the mountains that you normally wouldn’t. The workshop will focus on skills such as navigation, mountain running equipment, hydration and nutrition, staying safe in the mountains and much more to ensure that you can safely enjoy the mountains and even enter trail running events. Whether you are a beginner trail runner or already have a base level of skill, this workshop is the perfect way to develop your skills. The day will be tailored to suit your needs and will certainly have you wanting more trail action! Your instructor, Jake Thompsett, will also give you resources and advice on various mountain skills such as water sourcing and purification along with safety equipment you can use if ever faced with drastic weather changes or emergency situations. You will experience some of the best areas of the Brecon Beacons and run along some fantastic mountain, forestry and moorland trails and open country.
