• Kate Worthington - Snowdonia Slate Trail FKT - 117

  Back in February, Kate Worthington accomplished an incredible feat by completing the Snowdonia Slate Trail, a challenging 83 mile journey that circles Snowdonia, showcasing its unique slate heritage and breathtaking landscapes. Kate achieved the Fastest Known Time (FKT) unsupported, a testament to her strength and resilience. Completing a route unsupported means relying entirely on oneself, with no external assistance. Everything needed must be carried from start to finish, except for water sourced from nature along the way.The Snowdonia Slate Trail offers remarkable variety, winding through bustling villages as well as quiet, tucked-away corners of Snowdonia. Along the route, adventurers encounter slate quarries, tranquil forests, and vast, empty mountains. This trail truly has it all.XMILES UK - 10% discount via the link below.https://xmiles.avln.me/c/RiwxnARvfHeRSHOKZ - Use code TEA102025 to receive £10 off your orderhttps://uk.shokz.com?sca_ref=7394994.MfsDQZBAeLQihiPrecision Fuel & Hydration https://visit.pfandh.com/3GKxHjUPrecision Fuel & Hydration Planner https://visit.pfandh.com/3RuP25zHarrier - Use code TEA10 for 10% off your order https://harrierrunfree.co.uk/Fenixlight Limited https://www.fenixlight.co.uk/Protein Rebel - Use code Tea15 for 15% off your first order https://proteinrebel.com/Centurion Running - Use code TEAANDTRAILS10 to receive 10% off all orders *Excluding Sale Items.https://centurionrunning.com/LIFE JACKET SKIN PROTECTION - Use code GOTYOURBACK for 10% off your first orderhttps://lifejacketskin.com/PRIMUS UK - Use code TT-PRIMUS-20 for 20& off your orderhttps://primusequipment.co.uk/Content may contain affiliate links which can help support and grow this channel at no extra cost to you.
