The training regime consists of paddling OC6, OC1 & 2 nearly everyday of the week, gym circuits, fitness tests, boxing, beep tests, mountain & road biking, running, rowing, static air bike (the Beast) where they continually thrive to come out of their comfort zone. They are so dedicated to their training for this campaign I have ordered them to have one rest day per week! 

A good example of their fitness & recovery is last weekend they all entered the Noosa OC1/2 Regatta race Long course and all placed up the front and then backed up early the next morning in a practise training changeover session at race pace from Noosa to Mooloolaba in tough big swell conditions. 

So all in all the Heads are on track and are going Great Guns full steam ahead, they have come along way from average fitness & weight to an Elite level of fitness, strength & speed in and out of the canoe, from eating Vegemite sanga’s and drinking lots of Beer to now knowing what & when to eat and using their food as fuel, they have all lost unwanted body fat & gained lean muscle. 

From the Heads, thank you for all those that supported our Food Tent bbq & snacks at Noosa’s Regatta last weekend and to those Master Chefs that baked & donated to our cause. 

Also thanks to all that came to our fundraiser lunch at Esco Cafe where good food & drinks were had with a good fun crowd. I will be in the support boat in Molokai with our Team of Champions calling the changes, times, feeding & hydrating them until they reach their goal at the finish line, i will also take pics & videos and will post up live info if possible so you can keep track on how the Loggerheads perform, also checkout road2molo on instagram… “Mahalo” Shaneo.
