Last year Terry O'Neill's TV career went up in flames when the Home Shopping Channel he was working for burned to the ground. He claims it was as a direct result of the phones being overloaded after one of his charismatic presenting spots. It's known that the fire brigade take a subtly different view.Although it looked initially that he was stuck in the scrap heap of former presenters and commentators alongside Christopher Lillicrap, Wincey Willis and Bernie Winters (plus Schnorbitz), he's now been rescued from obscurity by the Ultra-FIT X-Training Challenge this weekend at the Stratford-upon-Avon Visitor and Leisure Centre. The Ultra-FIT challenge is the toughest event in the cross-training calendar, testing every aspect of strength, skill and endurance over ten pieces of fitness equipment. Commentary will be provided by one of the leading names in fitness, Mark McKeon, flown all the way over from Australia, and Terry O'Neill, bussed all the way down from Nottingham.The individual men and women's events take place on the Saturday, while the Sunday sees the team event. Competing in this are five members of the British gold medal Olympic rowing eight – Steve Trapmore, Luka Grubor, Louis Attrill, Simon Dennis and Ben Hunt-Davis. Taking part under the name Pieces of Eight, with any luck they'll be able to demonstrate once again that rowing is the ultimate fitness sport.For more information, check out http://www.ultra-fitmagazine.com/XTC.htm
