Training Week in Devon, April 2006
Tom Watson often takes a group of athletes from various clubs for a training week down at Croyde over Easter.
|
On our second night there, the sun set into a hazy sky, giving these spectacular shots |
|
Finding a firm flat track to run on is a real bonus |
|
|
Above is the beach at Croyde, and below that of Saunton Sands. Behind you can see the sand dunes of Braunton Burrows, just waiting to be run up |
|
|
|
|
|
There is only one way to tackle dunes like these - power all the way up. You just have to be careful not to clout the guy behind!
|
|
|
Reaching the top comes as a great relief |
|
|
Shoes are useless in the soft sand |
|
| The go-karting championship this year saw an epic battle between coach and athlete | |
|
Joe went out hard, but Tom Watson was never far behind |
|
|
|
|
|
Damien and Ashley also provided entertainment for the spectators on the bends |
|

|
| In the end Joe's immaculate cornering won the
day
