Training in Uplands
Parks, paddles and calmer studios.
Uplands sits about a mile west of Swansea city centre, and much of it is hilly. Its list is small and leans gentle: The Swansea Wellbeing Centre and Beth Cox's Dial Down Your Pain sessions on the studio side, Uplands Ping Pong Club and the Beechwood Club for sport, and bookable courts at Cwmdonkin Park.
Cwmdonkin, Brynmill and Rosehill Quarry parks are all local, and the slopes between them make honest interval work. With so many students in shared houses here, plenty of people are new to the area and looking for someone to play or run with.
