Do I need hiking experience?
Not at all, this is for everyone and their dog (yes you can bring your dog). This will be a challenge but nothing you won’t already be used to when it comes to burpees and wall balls. This will be something you will most certainly enjoy and the ham sandwich at the end alongside the views will be worth it.
How much does it cost?
£25 per person. However, we can only accommodate 20 people so be sure to book your spot as soon as possible (dogs can go free). Register & make payment at the Chalk Fitness reception.
What do I need to bring?
You will need clothing that is waterproof (after all we do live in Ireland) have a change of clothes with you that you can leave in the car. A day sack packed with snacks for along the way along with a litre of water and the all-important packed lunch.
The correct footwear is vital so be sure to bring walking boots with thick socks or trail shoes. Runners are no good when hiking so best leave them behind.
If you have any extra room once the packed lunch is into the bag you will need a hat and a pair of gloves along with some sun cream and any medication you may be currently taking.
A first aid kit will be supplied.
If you are interested in attending, sign-up at the front desk at Chalk. Full payment secures your place. If you have any questions reach out to colm@chalk.fit.
