Those of you who normally receive this newswire in HTML format
will have noticed there's a change in format this week and for
the next few issues. The reason for this is that our HTML wire
is about to undergo a brand new makeover which will mean it'll be
reaching the inboxes of nearly all of TrainingZONE's 40,000
members. Stay tuned for more news about this over the coming
weeks!
