Trail running is an endurance activity combining the choice of trajectory for movement and effort management.
This activity reconciles the development of physical and technical capacities through running, with a reflective and management approach (nutrition, intensity, observation of the natural environment, choice of itineraries) as part of the logic of rapid and regular progress during the effort.
12 lessons of 2 hours each
All courses take place in the great outdoors, with no specific structures.
You'll need a pair of sneakers suitable for trail-type progress, a supply of water, a food ration, a cell phone and a headlamp for night-time use.
- Develop physical capacities (cardiovascular).
- Develop technical skills linked to the progression of the center of gravity.
- acquire the knowledge needed to manage nutrition
- Establish race strategies according to profile
All students who are eligible for Trail validation at the end of the semester are assessed on 2 courses: a single-slope trail with a technical descent, and a sawtooth trail with a variation in pace. The scale is distributed as follows:
Performance: time according to regional level opener percentage
- Skill: relationship between road speed and speed achieved
- Technical ability: adaptation to varied terrain
- Commitment to the course, the student's overall attitude to learning
