right i'm gonna be doing a three hour long sponored skip for charity around june and any advice any one can offer would be awesome. dont need any help with the fund raising shizal as i've done quite a few of these sponsored things now. but i think this skipping one is going to be harder than i first thought. basically an hour is the longest i have skipped before and that was a killer. it was at mixed tempo's so on the day i do this i wont be going at that pace to save my batteries a bit. i had a skip today for half an hour just to gain an idea of where about i am with regard as to being able to skip for three hours straight and i definately think i need to train a bit.
has anyone done anything like this before or skipped for any long periods of time? any advice on how to prepare myself for this? my deltoids (shoulders) tend to begin to ache before anything else but after that it has to be my calf's and my shins.
obviously with it being june when i am going to do this i will be stopping for swigs of water here and there but i basically want to complete it without really stopping. any help would be awesome guys and i'll keep you updated as to how my training is going. over and out.
