Progression sessions

If you have ever fancied racing but are not sure what to expect, we are planning to do some race experience days, where we will aim to guide you through the process of a race weekend, from signing on, to track walk, to the beeps at the start of a run but without the pressure of actually being timed .

These will be at an extra cost to cover the venue and equipment
