Out and about..

The Endurance Store visited the Lakeland Triathlon, Clitheroe Triathlon and Stockton Tri within 2 separate weekends.. I know the maths don't add up, Clitheroe and Stockton were actually on the same day..

Paul made the interesting observation that whilst competitors were racing, they were not likely to buy anything from the shop.. fair point.. and decided to race both Lakeland and Stockton events to make the trip a more memorable experience. He faired pretty well considering his lack of racing in 2010 and showed he is more than an energy gel salesman..

We have recently become stockists of compressport clothing and as all good retailers should do, we decided to test our own products and have been walking around for 1 week compressed to within an inch of our lives.. my lactic acid levels have never been so low but my blood flow has deteriorated to the extent that my legs are blue..

The store moves on to Helvellyn Tri, September 5th.. Paul will be watching Muse live on Saturday, driving direct to the lakes to set up the stall and then racing the event.. Marc will be going to bed early, preparing fully and then racing the event.. if Paul finishes ahead of Marc, Marc will be holding his head under the surface of Ullswater until he can no longer breathe.. race on..

For now, keep the badger at bay..
