Re: 12 mile (20km) Adventure Race

In addition to all the great advice here: Fun-Runs, Fun-Runs, Fun-Runs. Get creative, use KB or weight-vest FRs, mix it up with bodyweight/burpees and practice going the distance. Good luck and keep us posted! Yes I've started utilising 2 fun runs a week, loving them so far. They are perfect for my...

Re: 12 mile (20km) Adventure Race

Long fun runs are pretty much golden for OCRs in my opinion. Rope climbs or towel pull-ups as a finisher on your strength days would even things out nicely and get you ready for the ropes.
