One of the athletes we sponsor, Mirjam Weerd, turned pro in 2011 after an outstanding 2010. She has been out in California training for a couple of months and raced her first event of the season in March, the San Diego Superseal (Olympic distance).
She came in second which bodes well for 2011! Above she is pictured wearing our custom running tights and training jacket at the end of the race. We put a lot of work into developing these running tights as there are a lot of technical issues involved in making tights comfortable for running – we had to remove all the seams from the inside of the legs to stop any chance of chaffing for example, which is not as easy as it sounds! It is not enough to just look great on the podium (and Mirjam always looks fantastic in photos of course!), but our kit is all about performing under race conditions, which is why we use pro racers like Mirjam to help us constantly develop our range under the most demanding conditions. Have a great 2011 Mirjam…
