Hello Everyone!
Good luck to everyone who is heading to the Massey

and now it's time to reap the benefits of all the effort you've
put into your running or walking. Bring us back some pictures
we can put up on the Wall of Fame!
Tip of the week:
"Your HRM gives you a physiological window - through actual
heart rate measurement - into your body's response to the moment
to moment rigours of physical activity. This precise view of
what's happening inside your body allows you to make immediate
adjustments in your exercise intensity to the level most appropriate
for your body and your particular needs." -from the Running
Room's Book on Running by John Stanton
Product highlight:
Until August 31st, Timex is offering $10 off their Ironman Heart
Rate Monitors. With these Monitors, in addition to all the great
functions you have come to expect from Timex you are getting
a wonderful training tool.
