Hands Warm At Last
This winter was long and cold. After just 20-25 minutes shoveling snow with winter gloves on, my hands would begin turning blue and ache with pain. I found the Nuptse Mittens on your site and ordered them, based on the information describing the mittens. Every word you said was true. I used them this past month and my hands stayed as warm as if I were indoors. They are the best!!!
Excellent
They were quite warm for skiing and kept the water out for a long time on rainy days. I am very pleased with them overall.
Northface Nuptse - just okay
This mitten was not as warm as I thought it would be. It was thin. Also, I ordered an XS and they were huge on me.

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.
