DAKINE Impala Glove - Womens
The DAKINE Women's Impala glove makes the Antarctic feel like a sunny summer Sunday. Thermoloft insulation, teamed with Gore-Tex 3-layer inserts, wraps your digits in the kind of comfort you thought only grandma's quilts could offer. The full-length, over-the-cuff gauntlet keeps that powder stash you just danced through where it belongs: on the mountain. And the leather palm delivers a secure grip in case you reconsider that drop and need to grab hold of the nearest spruce.

Training Tips
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.
Efficient running position allows you to run farther and faster. Keep the heel raise to a minimum, relax your upper body and hands, keep your upper body poised and quiet.
