Hugo Allen

As a British Army Officer, Hugo learnt his cross country skiing in Norway in the early 80’s. His 3 years as player/manager of the GBR Olympic Nordic Ski Team gave him significant training and elite competition experience across Europe & North America, as well as a deep love for the sport.

Hugo continued to compete alongside a 23 year career at IMG (International Management Group) based in Switzerland & London, culminating in creating Glide in 2018.

Hugo loves introducing people to cross country skiing & guiding them on their journey from first tentative steps to completion of a marathon.
