Two weeks prior to each event there will be a training run set up at Preston Docks Ribble Pilot Pub, Starting with 200m intervals working up each time by 100m until you do get to 1500m, Dates and times will be posted on the 88 challenge The facebook page there will be a charge for the training at £1 per session or £10 for the block of 10.
