Team Speedlager 2008 finally out of the closet

Team Speedlager.de 2008 has decided to make good use of youtube. They are now promoting their team with videos. The first one is a training video from their team meeting this weekend: click here. The team known for their early starts (good for photos) and white suits will be fighting to get a member into the top 10 of the German Blade Challenge this season.

The official (but still unreleased) member list for the team is:
Thorben Wöhlki
Sören Harder (currently injured)
Julien Tiedtke
Denis Dressel
Rico Keppeler (former Zepto)
Tobias Hecht (Track only)

Rico Keppeler won the mass sprint at the German nationals in double marathon distance in 2007 in a time of 2:35:40,05. He is well known for endurance qualities, as he will always try to break away from the pack solo. At the DM nationals it had rained through the night as well as all day during the race. The picture on the left shows Rico (Zepto suit) beating German endurance specialist Bernhard Krempl (at a regional race in Neu-Ulm).
