In the case of the Hanesbrand Team's recent climb of Everest, that early test came on the Himalayan peak of Pumori, where they tested their gear, team chemistry, and skills months before they attempted Everest. By doing so, they were able to make corrections as needed and the process helped to result in a successful summit of Everest this past spring.
Team leader Jamie Clarke gives another example of how to apply this lesson, using the goal of running a 10k instead. He says that before you run that distance, you'll train over shorter distances, but might test yourself on a 3k time trial, in which you'll run at a faster pace than you expect, you'll test your food strategies, and determine if your shoes will work for you. The lessons you learn from that process will help you prepare for the real event later on.
