Wet hands mean cold hands
I have tried just about every glove out there to keep my 8 yr old warm and dry. I had come to the conclusion that there was no glove made that was up to the challenge of keeping her warm and dry until I found these. She plays hard and can't keep her hands out of the snow and ice (what kid can!) but these gloves stayed dry and kept her warm. Thank you North Face. Her only complaint is that they aren't pink!!
Gloves
Excellent quality gloves. Unfortunately cuff runs small and my grandson couldn't get his hand in the glove. So my younger grandson (3YRS) got them.
Excellent Product/Super-fast
The gloves I recieved are superior quality. The delivery was astoundingly fast!

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.
