Overview:
Walk in the footsteps of SAS Legends...
A three day event which will cover the full route of Endurance, otherwise known as Long Drag. This event has been created initially to help those who are interested in taking on this epic event. It is also suitable for anyone who wishes to increase their hill fitness and experience as well as gaining invaluable knowledge from our DS and MST team.
You will complete the SAS Endurance route as a group and be given vital information with regards to equipment selection and maintenance, foot care and general guidance to improve your training through knowledge and experience provided by former UK Special Forces and our Mountain Safety Team.
The army call this 'Tabbing' where as the Royal Marines call it Yomping. The word TAB actually comes from the phrase 'Tactical Advance to Battle' describing the method in which soldiers would travel on foot into battle with all their equipment ready to eat, sleep and fight.
Tabbing is very unique as it is a combination of muscle and cardiovascular endurance, burning far more calories than running alone and stimulating more muscle tone than a typical gym session. It also uses the largest muscles in the body, giving a higher calorific output.
Your experience will include practical tips for when you're out on the hills in order to enhance your fitness and endurance. It will also deliver a series of essential 'Know How' skills, hints and tips related to hill fitness.
The event will be split into 3 days. We will cover 25km on day one and the same distance on day two. The remaining distance, approximately 15km, will be covered on day three.
At the end of each day there will be a predesignated camping area set out There will be some additional theory lessons in the evening before some down time and a night under the stars for a well deserved rest before heading back out the next day.
