Summer is here !! If you haven’t noticed the last week or so has been super hot – we wanted to share a few handy hints, debunk some myths and touch on some strategies you can use to perform better in summer when you exercise
Check out Mark talking specifically about Kurrawa to Duranbah 50 & 30k endurance races.
