Iconic New Zealand sporting brand, Canterbury of NZ (@CCCNZ) has launched an exciting new promotion called #trainisthegame based around what most of us do off the sportsfields. We go the gym, we hit the road running, and we climb those hills. We train every day and our success is that we train. Train is the game for us; it’s why we do it.

To this end, they’ve created the Baselayer and Mercury Compression ranges to wear while you Train, Compete and Recover; next-to-skin garments that improve blood circulation, boost the evaporation of sweat, maintain constant body temperature and have anti-odour agents. Basically, they keep you cool when it’s hot, warm when it’s cold, and looking good whatever the weather.

Canterbury of NZ will be running a social media competition starting next week (8th Oct 2013) when you can post photos with the hashtag #trainisthegame to win training gear! More about that on their Facebook page
