Bleep test

The BFR circuits group who meet at Brookhouse every Monday did the bleep test today, followed by some core strength exercises and a celebratory meal at the Station. This is Chris's heart rate monitor trace, maxing out at 175 bpm. Need to get fitter!

British Blokart Champs Ainsdale 28th/29th June

I thought it was about time I posted some news on here, so here's a little about the Blokart Champs weekend at Ainsdale. The wind blew, sometimes not quite strongly enough, but we managed a total of 12 races, 10 of 15 minutes and the last 2 just 10 minutes. The start box was about half-way along the upwind leg of the course and there was a lot to be gained by crossing the line at the best time. Even so the finishing order in each race was nearly the same each time!

Jacob picked up a prize for most improved sailor, since he started off barely managing to get around the course but by the end of the weekend was racing for all he was worth.
