Find out how to run this winter to build a solid base for a successful spring/summer of trail and ultra running and racing with coach & sports physio Tim Pigott from HP3 coaching. This is his vlog, Project Phoenix which will document his return to racing in 2021 – rising from the ashes! Scroll down for links to Tim’s Montane trail running gear and camera kit.

In this episode Tim runs a classic trail route across  the moors discussing the importance of easy base miles during this phase of the training cycle, and how you can set some benchmarks for the season to come.

Good luck to everyone with your running and races in 2021
