scottishathletics are pleased to invite sign-ups for another Off-Track education session.
The webinar will look to give an overview and introduction to hill, mountain and trail running.
Presented by Angela Mudge, National Endurance Manager Off-Track, and international mountain and trail runner Andy Douglas, we expect the audience to be coaches and athletes (born 2009 or before).
Hill, mountain and trail running abroad is very different from the classic hill race in Scotland.
This webinar aims to educate athletes and coaches on the mountain and trail running scene further afield and how good Scottish endurance athletes can transition to uphill only races and those athletes who like a more technical challenge can try their hand at trail or up and down races.
Topics include:
- Trail, hill and mountain defined
- Domestic competition
- International competition
- International versus domestic (terrain, courses, navigation)
- Skills required and specific training
- Competition year
- International opportunities
- Andy’s journey from cross country runner to international mountain runner
The webinar will be on Wednesday 26 February 2025 at 7:00pm
