The SAS Fan Dance or Long Drag is a training exercise undertaken in the Brecon Beacons by the SAS. In the exercise, prospective members of the regiment undertake a 60 kilometer or 40 mile march through the mountains while carrying a 55-pound 'bergen'. The exercise takes its name from the mountain of Pen y Fan, which one route of the exercise includes. [1]
