East Area Training

Last weekend East Area training took place at Riccarton, Edinburgh. Planned by Lorna Eades (INT) and Ian Maxwell (RR), it was the first urban focused East Area session. Over 40 people attended with training groups from TD1-5 including juniors and adults groups. 

For the TD3 plus groups the morning focus was on route choice, before exercises focusing on starts in the afternoon. The highlight of the day was the morning relay with legs from TD 1-5 meaning everyone took part together. 

This was the third East Junior training of the year with the first two taking place at Holyrood Park and Kinnoull Hill. The next East Area training session will take place on the 4th October at Gullane. This session will have a more technical contour focus.
