Cotswold Marathon – Practice 3
An excellent walk in dramatic snowy scenery across the 10 miles of the Cotswold Marathon Bronze route. Great bunch of young people that worked well together and enjoyed the day and the challenge. We are entering a Bronze and Silver team this year, (10 mile and 20 mile routes), the next practice will be the second 10 miles of the Silver route in the New Year.
The hope to build their navigation skills, stamina and knowledge of what equipment they need to be safe in the hills. Building to the event itself in February which is a night race across the routes. The Bronze aim is to try and beat the 4 hrs we did it in last year, the Silver aim is to carry on the good work from last year and work for a top ten finish hopefully.
No matter how they do, it will be a great event again and a challenge they can tick off as having accomplished.
Now for a rest until the New Year, Happy Christmas to everyone.
