Whilst the warmer weather is lovely, it can make training a little bit harder.

During our recent recce of the Midsummer Mortimer Trail we experienced everything from blistering heat to pre-storm humidity. We thought it was a great opportunity to share a few of our favourite tips to help you train in warmer weather as we approach all our summer events.

And remember, sun cream and lots of it! (Especially if you’re like us and fall into the ginger or bald category! 😆)

Are you team summer or winter events? 🤔

It’s been an extremely difficult decision, but Storm The Castle 2026 marked the final time we will lower the flag.

Storm The Castle has been an incredible event, and we’re so proud of what we have achieved. 🏰

We want to take the opportunity to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way, you’ve made this journey so special.
