About The Event

Welcome to the 2023 'Trail Running - From 5KM to 25KM' Sessions.

This unique training experience includes both virtual and 'in-person' sessions.

In total the sign-up includes 7 sessions - 3 Virtual sessions which you can join (or which will be emailed to you if you cannot attend that session) and 4 'in person' sessions that will all take place in Epping Forest on Friday Mornings.

There will be a small number of places available due to the 'in person' opportunity.

In October Camino will be hosting a 25KM event in Epping Forest. So natutally this training package would suit anyone signed-up or interested in this race distance. However you only need to be at ParkRun level to take part. No running will be longer than 5KM and there will be plenty of opportunities to stop and rest.
