Ideas to discuss. Your leader confirms suitability, availability, duration and arrangements.
The character of the day
A day shaped around your group.
A mountain run is about more than distance. Tell the leader about your recent terrain, ascent and descending experience, and how long you would like to be out. They decide what they can offer and how the route fits the group and conditions. Unique Aspect does not provide coaching or the activity.
This is an introduction service. Leader availability and suitability must be confirmed before any activity is agreed.
Useful details
What to discuss with the leader.
- Recent running distance, time and ascent

- Weather alternatives and the provider’s own terms
The introduction is free, with no commission. I ask for specific permission before sharing your details with a named leader. The leader makes their own offer and handles suitability, arrangements, contract and payment.
