Perhaps not all will agree when we say that as far as we are concerned the most important area of fitness for rugby football is that of the cardio-vascular response to a continual high level of physical output.We know that many people see other component parts as being vitally important.However, whilst being fully appreciative of the many areas and the vital parts they have to play we feel that the highest priority must be given to what we in Aberdeen have termed "runability".This is working on the supposition that if one is unable to get there competently, then one is not really taking part, this being especially true in the coaching environment at a University.
