Check-up

We have not had a medical examination.  All three of us were in a good medical shape so we felt it was not necessary.

Training

The only goal we have set is that everyone must be able to run the 10 kms within the hour. The testing possibilities were:

• Dam-tot-Dam loop, 10 miles from Amsterdam to Zaandam
• Marathon Amsterdam

• Meteorology
