Questions covered tonight: we are going to be talking about 4 vital things that every trail runner needs to know – how to use heart rate for ultra training, how to clean kit to make sure it lasts for the longest possible time (particularly soft bottles and jackets), recommendations for winter socks and gloves and what to carry in a first aid kit.
