NAV4 (formerly NAV+Art) is a weekend training course dedicated to the art of navigation for mountain marathons and adventure races, but also cover many other aspects of Adventure Racing.
The course programme includes:
- Navigation - both micro navigation and macro route choices
- Food and Nutrition - theory and practical advice to survive events!.
- Equipment and Gear Seminars - how to travel light, samples of suitable kit and displays of the latest and best products.
- Adventure Racing - tips and 'How to do it' . . as well as 'How not to do it!'.
- Training, Stretching and Recovery.
- ...and anything we can cram in for you.
The programme is not intended to be a physically demanding weekend, but the weekend will be tiring because it is a busy programme and you will learn so much. Your 'running' speed or ability is not relevant, nor is your navigation experience. You will learn in small groups of equal ability and experience - (maximum 4:1 ratio).
"You truly put on a fantastic and very professional weekend."
"The instructors were all very knowledgeable and were more than happy to share their mountain marathon/adventure racing secrets."
"...it is all your enthusiasm towards the sport that was contagious."
"...great few days and I certainly feel more confident with my nav."
"...I won't be content to just follow on in a sheep-like style!"
"...we used virtually all that he taught us on the nav art weekend and he must have done a good job because we didn't get lost, even in thick fog!!"
"Your course is a must for new entrants to OMM!"
