Cenk's training diary and team update


We just had our second session on outrigging. We were lucky as in both occasions, the weather was great and we made the most of the training and the beautiful harbour.

These trainings are preparing us for the outrigging part of our race. Considering none of the team members have done outrigging before, we were fortunate to find training just before the race. We also discovered the trainings are good fun and a social event where you meet other ( more professional) outriggers and other Accor Teams.

The trainings are becoming more intense and we are starting to mix it up ( like running and swimming) to be ready for the gruelling conditions in Fiji.

My personal training is going well. The other day, I ran from work to home and it took me only 40 minutes (20 minutes faster than the public transport!) Cyling and running will be the ideal mode of transport for me in the next weeks with a swimming stop at a local pool on the way.

A big thank you to all who donated so far.

Help us reach our goal: $20 000, there is now only one month to the race and you can donate online just by clicking on the link on this page.
