Part of the informal series to do either of the following as it suits best to you to get in shape for winter scrambles in Jan/Feb:
(1) Weighted uphill hike (10%-35%BW) so that the pace is limited by the strength in the legs and be under Aerobic Threshold (AeT). Time or weight will be increased on a weekly basis.
(2) Interval training hike with urban essential backpack only. Fast paced hike to stay below Lactate Threshold levels for 10 to 15 mins with easy pace for next 5 mins, going up and down the stairs.
6:30 pm at top of the stairs
Required Equipment
10 essentials and filled water jugs to appropriate weight in the backpack as desired. Hiking poles are personal choice.
