Date: 2 – 8 JUNE 2012
Trainers: MARIA LEIJERSTAM
Overview:
Join professional adventure racer, Maria Leijerstam on a great week in the Alps learning the art of Adventure Racing, one of the fastest growing sports in the world. For those of you who think triathlon is a bit staid but want to take part in a multi-sport format, Adventure Racing is for you.
Combining the three disciplines of kayaking, trail running and cycling, on a route you have to navigate your way around, plus additional challenges along the way to keep you on your toes, there is no better way to get fit and enjoy the great outdoors.
During this week’s retreat you will enjoy taking part in all three disciplines, as well as being taught the art of navigation and have a chance to try out a few of the challenges. By the end of the week you will be able to navigate your way around a full adventure race course.
Adventure Racing is great to do with friends, as a pair or in a team, and the three disciplines ensure you get a great workout. Kayaking is great for toning the abs and improving shoulder and back strength. Running and cycling are the perfect for shaping legs and firming the buttocks. Throw in some orienteering and you’ll be using your brain too; what more could you want from a sport?
