JENSON BUTTON IN LANZAROTE
10 December 2009 – 15:45
Jenson Button has been coming to Lanzarote for winter training since 2001 when he was brought to the island as part of a Benetton team trip. It has become a regular part of his training and he is often accompanied by other drivers and always by his personal trainer.
He’s a driver renowned for his dedication to fitness, who can forget him running the full length of the main straight at Monaco, and after a grueling Grand Prix, when he mistakenly parked in the pits after winning the race? He very often enters triathlon and marathon events, and alway enjoys his sport.
He always stays at Club La Santa while here, and cites the excellent food and sports facilities as the main reasons, and he really gets stick into the atmosphere while is in there, joining in as many competitions as he can. On this trip he has already covered 180km on the bike, 18km running and 7Km of swimming – all that in 3 days! He also loves the way that he can concentrate on fitness while he is at La Santa – no press, no family and no distractions!
