SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – Participating in this year’s 50th Anniversary Speed Week, held at Coniston Water in Cumbria, Cox Marine has achieved the industry’s first ever Diesel Outboard World* Speed Record.

The Cox Marine team and their vessel Pegasus, surpassed their own three prior speed records, recorded earlier this week, to clinch a coveted World Record title, for World’s fastest Diesel outboard* on Thursday 3rd November achieving an average speed of 62.27mph.

Measured across a kilometre long course requiring a flying start, Pegasus, a 21ft Hallett Vector, piloted by experienced powerboat racer Adam Brown, was required to travel the course’s distances in both directions, within an hour to minimise any potential wind advantage. With official Water Speed Record timekeepers’ oversight, both time and the speed in both directions, are recorded and then averaged over the two runs constituting the final speed.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 6, 2023 – Endurance training is a fundamental part of training for most people. However, training management – especially the choice of the right intensity – is often a “black box”. Qualified trainers should explain this to their clients and give them professional advice on how to train in a targeted manner using simple means.

Endurance training focuses on improving endurance, fatigue resistance and regeneration. Exercisers should be able to maintain the given load for as long as possible and recover quickly afterwards. Specific endurance training in fitness training is useful for all target groups. After all, how good one's endurance is becomes just as apparent when climbing up to the third floor as when running a half-marathon or completing several sets of squats.
