Loss of concentration can be caused by distractions in your surroundings such as other competitors, thoughts about how you are going to win (or lose) and lack of confidence in the accuracy of your bearing. Mistakes also occur when you trust the map too much and fail to check on your direction. You run a little bit too far, lose your direction at terrain obstacles or make a parallel error.

Silva employ the strictest quality control standards I know of in the manufacture of their clothing, using only top quality materials and production techniques.

Heart Rate Monitors (HRM) & Watches Heart Rate Monitors POLAR If you're healthy, you want to stay that way. And that means an active life. Exercise helps you reduce weight, fight stress and build a stronger heart. It can be hard to exercise in a busy life which is where Polar comes in. A Polar HRM cuts out the guesswork, telling you how hard to exercise - and for how long. You'll work at a pace that's safe for your body, gaining maximum benefit in minimum time. All Polar HRM's use a light weight chest belt which picks up electronic signals from the heart and transmits them to the wrist watch receiver to display them.	Water Carriers Whether you are pushing your body to the limit or undertaking normal training and exercise you need a nutritional strategy that will give your body the energy, nutrients and fluid it needs. Fluid loss can have a dramatic effect on performance. Research has shown as much as a 20% reduction in performance for only a 2% loss of body fluid mass. Water carriers can be used to carry plain water or a range of beneficial electrolyte and carbohydrate drinks. Recovery can be boosted by regular uptake of fluids during and immediately after exercise.	Carrying Equipment Mountain Marathon Lightweight Sacks Bumbags Lowe alpine
