We have created a hiking training guide based on how experienced you already are at hiking! You can use our guide to create your own training plan and prepare yourself for your Mighty challenge.
Make sure you spend time trying on different hiking shoes. Find something with good support and grip that suits you, and take a fresh pair of hiking socks to change into halfway through your hike.
Our training guide is designed so that your can fit it around your lifestyle. Schedule in the sessions for the days and times that give you the best opportunity to focus.
It’s good to mix up your training to help enhance your fitness and make the miles feel easier. Why not try some different cross-training activities such as cycling, swimming and gym work.
Throughout your training make sure you are drinking lots of water, eating well and resting when needed to reduce the risk of injury and fatigue.
The changeable British weather is all part of the challenge, so make sure you check the forecast before each hike and dress sensibly. Make sure you have removable layers and waterproof clothing.
