How Super League Stars are Training in Coronavirus Times

It’s a testing time for Super League’s athletes as they try and follow government advice in the face of the coronavirus pandemic while also ensuring they stay in tip-top shape ready to get back out on the race course.

For Super League power couple Rachel Klamer and Richard Murray the answer was obvious – head into nature and keep swimming even if the pools are closed, though it does seem a little cold judging by their kit.

If you like the feeling of someone pushing your face into the snow and then not letting it go, go swim outside 😂. Got into my wetsuit at home, swam about 1500m and drove back home in my wetsuit. When we got in, we got surrounded by some people who probably thought we were crazy. They are right, but that’s ok. 📷 @mriek1901 . #keepgoing #givesyouwings 🇳🇱 mocht je iemand zijn/kennen die een privé zwembad heeft, ik hoor graag van je!

Taylor Spivey was out on her bike – and practicing distancing, or non-drafting as it’s known in triathlon.

The season has been suspended until the 30th of April. I’d like to acknowledge the respect @worldtriathlon Has towards the safety of the athlete’s. We train to race but it’s times like these when heath comes first before anything else… . . Unfortunately this postpones my season and cancels a few races early on. After the crash and race in Mooloolaba I’m going to take two weeks of doing what I want so I can mentally refocus and prepare for a huge training block. . With the world going a bite crazy atm it’s nice to take the time, relax and take in the beauty it has to offer!!! . . Keep positive everyone it’s not all doom and gloom . . @hannedevet 📸
