Winning captain Lionel Sanders summed it up best as the sun set on the first ever #PTO Pro Am, hosted at the Herbalife24 #Triathlon Los Angeles on Sunday 15 May.

He said: “The importance of this relay was to highlight the many Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF) athletes who embody the true meaning of #nolimits.

“What an incredibly inspiring and fun day to be a part of. Thanks to the PTO and CAF for putting on a great event. We’re leaving LA feeling motivated to get back to work and onto the next one.”

Sanders and his team of former UFC star, Paul Felder, and Paralympian, Haven Shepherd, may have taken the podium in the mixed celebrity relay event, which featured nine CAF athletes across six teams. But the triathlon feelgood factor extended far beyond that, to the 50 elite athletes competing for the $100,000 prize fund – provided by the Professional Triathletes Organisation – and more than 2,000 amateur triathletes who had come to compete from  #losangeles #proam

After four amazing seasons, the Golden Trail World Series returns in 2022 with new ambitions. They include supporting athletes in their quest to become professionals and above all making trail running a must-see, televisual event.

The trail "world cup"

Trail running has experienced a spectacular rise in popularity over the last fifteen years. So spectacular that the sport has witnessed the development of many private circuits across the world. Between the short and the ultra distances, the national and the private circuits, it was tricky to know what was what for a while. "Nobody understood who was doing what exactly, and more importantly, the athletes' level of performance became diluted across all the different circuits, which prevented those at the top from competing against each other" explains Grégory Vollet. And it was precisely to offset this problem that he came up with the idea of launching the Golden Trail World  #goldentrailworldseries #outdoors #trailrunning

A packable down jacket is one of the most practical items for any cold weather travel.

Kathmandu is well known for making durable outdoor gear and this premium down filled jacket is no exception.

This jacket is a top pick because of how versatile it is - it features a 100 per cent Ripstop Polyester outer, ethically-sourced 600 fill power duck down, while the DWR-finished shell wicks water off so you can wear it in light rain or snow, without having to worry about it getting soggy. All the while being light as a feather (pun intended!)

Don’t be fooled by its ultra-light design though, this jacket will certainly keep you warm. When it comes to down material, it also has a more durable design and it holds up better than most in light amounts of precipitation. Of course, for seriously colder temps or high altitudes, you should look for something warmer. But for most backpacking environments, this has got you covered.

Arch compressionFlexible toesMidweight

The #Vibram No Show Toe Socks (2Pack) Coolmax blend toe socks are a stretch fit designed to fit like a glove for your feet. This fit will add approximately 1mm to your feet dimensions which rarely affects the size of shoe you choose. They can also be worn with a conventional trainer. Their benefits along with the obvious need for the toe socks for Vibram Fivefingers shoes are that they wick moisture more effectively from between the toes. This is great for general foot health and has also been known to help clear up or prevent athletes’ foot and also for anti-blistering between the toes.
