Boots for Insight Course

Post by Gydo »

Hey there,
I'm going on the insight course on the 16th of june and I have just ordered some military boots from the internet. Will we be expected to run in boots? If so I have never run in boots so will need to practice quick. Cheers.

As far as I'm aware gydo, you'll be expected to do all activites in trainers. You'd just hurt youself otherwise.
