Testing

May 11, 2008

Over the last week we have had some intellectual type people attaching accelerometers and video gear to our boats and paddles. It has been insightful for the team as a whole.

With just one week to go before I leave for Europe things are getting busy. Despite this training is starting to improve now due to the mileage not being so high and I have enjoyed new personal bests in terms of distance covered in 2hrs, 10k time and even 4 and 1 rep maxs in the gym.

I have been meaning for a while to plug the Oakley ThumpPro MP3 sunglasses. These are no gimmick and they are brilliant!

They have kept me company on many a grueling training session over the last six months on the water and off. If you like cranking the sounds while your working out I highly recommend them. The sound quality is really good too!
