Walk Description:

This walk is approximately 4.5/5 miles. There are two different options according to sign ups and the weather. Both options include a longish medium incline and possibly a couple of short steeper ramps. The walk is along country lanes, grass tracks, open countryside and wooded tracks. 

Intermediate - A faster pace than Gear 1 and an established technique is key, but if necessary a little more recovery time for those that need it. 

Gear 2 - A faster pace gained through technique. There will be less recovery time.
