Morgane and Nelli have chosen G4 to accompany them in their daily training, especially for cycling and running. (Directly after the bike ride you have to follow a running session to get your muscles used to these totally different sports changes from a sport worn to a sport more traumatic for muscles and joints).

During the chaining only the shoes are changed, which is why it is important to choose the best outfit.
