    GPS Training Podcast – Episode 125

    In this month’s episode of the GPS Training Podcast, Jon is joined once again by Andy from GPS Training.

    In this episode:

    Andy’s Update After The Lap

    Andy returns from taking on The Lap, a challenging 47-mile ultra-marathon around Lake Windermere. We discuss how his training went, the highs and lows of race day, what kit worked well, and what he learnt from the experience. If you’re considering your first ultra event, there are plenty of useful insights and lessons to take away.

    Do You Really Need Satellite Communication?

    Satellite communicators are becoming increasingly popular with walkers, runners, and outdoor adventurers. We explore who might benefit from carrying a satellite communication device, the situations where they can provide additional peace of mind, and whether they’re something the average outdoor enthusiast genuinely needs.

    TwoNav Roc – On The Trail Review

    Jon shares his real-world experiences using the new TwoNav Roc. Rather than looking at specifications on paper, we discuss how the device performs out on the trail, including mapping, route following, ease of use, battery life, and who it may be best suited to.

    Behind The Scenes at GPS Training

    A look behind the curtain at some of the content we’ve been creating recently for our Facebook and Instagram channels. From product testing and training videos to event preparation and life at GPS Training, we share what goes on when the cameras are rolling.

    Andy’s Top Tips

    Andy rounds off the episode with a selection of practical GPS and navigation tips to help you get more from your outdoor adventures this summer.
