Welcome
to the Icicle podcasts...
Podcasts are simply
free downloadable audio files, and you can
listen to them on your computer or
on an MP3 player such as an iPod. Topics range
from training to the choice of equipment,
and from advice for particular mountains to
what boots to use. You can choose to download
any specific podcasts that you would like,
or if you would like to listen to any new
podcast releases, then you can subscribe to
get future podcasts using the iTunes or RSS
buttons to the right. If you would like to
learn more about our RSS, click

Podcasts
are automatically sent to your computer
and loaded onto your iPod or MP3 device.
They are discreet (not streaming) files,
so listen on a web page, computer, or
iPod / MP3 player / phone. |
|
You
can listen to podcasts during your morning
commute, at the gym or even sneekily
whilst at work. The
key advantage is the portability and
flexibility for you, to listen where
and when you want. |
