About the Race -
The Fan Dance Race Series is an event that happens twice a year and is a 24km (half marathon) trek/run up the Brecon Beacons - famously part of the SAS & SBS selection process. I will be taking part in the load bearing event, which means I will have a Bergen (back pack) weighted to 35lbs with 'practical' gear. James and I will be aiming to complete this in the sub 4 hour limit that needs to be achieved to pass selection.
---------------------------------------------------
After completing the Fan Dance in January I am now determined to beat my time. We completed the race in 6 hours and 12 minutes, which is a lot of physical and mental punishment; the blizzard didn't help either.
So for the summer edition, there should be nothing holding us back from creeping closer to that selection time of 4 hours.
I am supporting the same charity again due to the genuine interest and personal communications they gave in January as well as a real thankfulness and appreciation for the money raised.
Thanks!
Alex
