Note: All the itinerary is flexible and none of it is compulsory. This is a draft outline of the sort of training we would look to clear during the week but the emphasis is also on enjoyment so feel free to do as much or as little as you like. We’re not expecting the weather to disrupt our plans but just in case it does we do have fallback options. All participants will have communication with Sean prior to the camp to tailor things to suit and have some pre camp dialogue to answer any questions you may have.
