Wildwasser Deck Pilot
Let's just say—for the sake of argument—that you swamp your boat during your next tour. If your bilge pump and paddle float become flotsam and jetsam and you can't find them in all those rolling waves, what happens? Far better to organize safety essentials with the help of the Deck Pilot's bilge pump and paddle float holsters. With a hydration sleeve to keep thirst at bay, a stable compass platform, a see-through GPS holder and a clip for Wildwasser's Info-Center, the semi-dry Deck Pilot provides storage space dedicated specifically to the stuff you need to stay on course and upright.

Training Tips
When buying a new pair of running shoes, bring your old ones with you. You will get a better fit if you know if you supinate or pronate.
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
Cross training gives your body a chance to recover while still exercising. If yesterday has a hard run day up and down hills, then today's bicycle ride gives your aching knees a well deserved break.
Anaeroic threshold is when lactic acid starts to build up in your body as your muscles are not getting the oxygen they require. This threshold is typically expressed as a percentage of your VO2 max - the amount of oxygen per kilogram of weight that a person can use in converting fuel to energy. Elite athletes threshold might be as high as 90% of VO2 max.
