Burning at Hurkling Edge

Burning at Moscar today.

It's not all running with DP juniors. There's time for fun and other skills too!

@RossendaleH The camps are great, but I believe they are by invitation based on results.... which isn't much of a pathway.

@DpfrJ There are also regular training camps for prospective Junior International mountain runners. Several of our juniors have attended

Question for fell clubs and coaches out there: anyone ever seen a development pathway for athletes or coaches for mountain running (international discipline)? Given the only off road coaching certs are LiRF and CiRF I struggle to see the coaching pathway. What about athletes?

Dark Peak Juniors are back out there this sunday for the first run this half term dpfr.org.uk/events/view/48…
