As the weather warms up, we are all moving from the Winter sports season into the Spring training season, and signing up for races and preparing for them. Last week, Brubeck teamed up with Multisport Canada to host our very first webinar for competitive runners: Run to the Hills! With so many voices on the internet, it can be overwhelming to try to find consistent, trust-worthy information. So we brought an expert to help our community find relevant information and minimize some of that preparation anxiety. The webinar was hosted by Dr. Erik Seedhouse. Runners at various skill levels got the chance to learn about Maximal Oxygen Uptake, more commonly known as VO2 Max, what it means, why it is important, and how to correctly improve it. Erik is currently preparing to leave for Nepal to climb Mt. Everest! He is climbing the 7 summits and has already checked off Denali, Kilimanjaro, Aconcagua and Elbrus. Erik was a professional triathlete for several years and has won many world championships. He is now a coach and exercise physiologist. For the past 12 years, he has guided athletes to Boston qualifiers and Kona. Click here to learn more about Erik and read his book, Triathlon the Hard Way: Winning the World's Toughest Triathlons. Stay tuned for more Brubeck activities!
