So finally we went to the swimming pool: surrounded by the most beautiful mountains I have ever seen, water of 26 degrees warm and my fantastic team of 15 other YEs having fun in the water. As for physical activities, this was just the beginning, because doctors from the Mayo Clinic continued examining us today. We had to give our best on that famous Cooper Test, doing push-ups, agility and balance tests... Taught, of course, but still a lot of fun (you don't imagine how ticklish a simple skinfold fatness measurement can be!. Theresa and Simon and 5 others will know what I mean!!!
But it's not about performing physically, showing of our fitness what this camp is all about. We really learn a lot. Just as an example, I would never suppose that a presentation given by Nesspresso, one of our sponsors, might be interesting, and, most of all, touch the subject of the natural environment. But it was. Nesspresso is a company producing coffee and selling it all over the world, as for every private company, the goal is to sell as much of their products as possible, but to do it in a sustainable, environmentally friendly way in the same time.
I really don't have time for any details. I will just add that eventually we had a chance to meet THE MAN.
Good night!
