Sabre 23 & Fan Dance Training Day Brecon Beacons 09th March

Discount for members

Intent: This day is intended to help people prepare for the Fan Dance event and also the Sabre 23 event in May, working the legs and core for strength and pacing for this distance.

Expectations: Working at a comfortable rate for a duration of approx 3.5-4 hours. Weighted or non weighted.

Fitness Level: Can be used for basic to advanced. Weight suggested is just what fits into your current training program and yet anyone wanting to push themselves harder could take a weight of up to 50lbs. Please speak with Nick for guidance. The pace wont be constant so anyone that wants to go slower can do, we do however expect there to be elements of running and this is not a walking day.
