As usual i'll have the Surf Life Physio tent post race at Burleigh for some massage / strapping / advice after 12 Towers!!!This year i'll have Physiotherapist Jill down to help out - as i'll be paddling myself and most likely be requiring attention myself! Once / if i've recovered from paddling i'll be on hand too to help outHope to see everyone down there during and after the race - good luck!

So is Rugby Union and the all blacks still need a physio! :P

and have never ever seen even a single rugby player running along holding a paddle

I see the quicky pro people are now using the 12 towers event as a swell guide

happy to listen to your reasoning

ho hum......am just wondering why you need a physio after competing in a low impact event as opposed to some of the more gladiatorial sports ?

well it's 14km paddling in the ocean - i'm not sure what your idea of gladiatorial is - but that's a fair whack?It's not just elite paddler's doing it either - some people will be first time paddlers who probably will pull up pretty sore, some will be nearing 50 or 60 years of age, who also will pull up pretty sore. Therefore benefiting from the skills, knowledge, and advice from an evidence based, university trained practitioner who is giving up their valuable Saturday to do so for free...
