The Deflection
I know you’ve all seen this before but it’s worth another look. I aspire to be as good at what I do as this guy is at what he does. That said i’ve never actually bought one but I sure love watching him talk about it. Genius!

Not meant to offend
My last post was not meant to offend but i realize that it may eventually offend the Ironman Canada folks who are good people. Fact is I love that race and that’s why I’m passionate about it. I don’t want to do other races, I want to do Ironman Canada and have it be a…

An Intriguing Post in the comments section
I received this comment on the “Livestrong Mr. Armstrong” Post: I wasn’t sure what it said so I tapped into the internet superhighway and got it translated. Translation below. I think I understood the Spanish version better. Regardless, i appreciate the comment, never had one in Spanish before. España. Ese país que según muchos de…
Livestrong Mr Armstrong

Yesterday I had a good race but will admit that I took a good thumping. By the end of the first of 4 loops on the bike I knew that running down Jordan was going to be an extremely tall order. He was sinking about 90 seconds per lap into us despite the fact that…
Xterra Mid-West Cup
Well, not exactly the result I was looking for but you take the good with the not so good. After a doozie drive from Port Angeles on Wednesday we raced the Xterra Mid-West Cup just north of Coeur D’Alene, ID on Saturday. The course was great, lots of fast single track which I really love…
Hit the reset button
There are some things that you happen upon that are almost quirky. They may not have a clear scientific explanation although I’m sure the right person could delv into it and come up with something that made sense on that level. I think there are just some things that we happen upon that make sense…
Three Hard Days
Hit the wall today but three good days will do that. Still feeling a bit out of whack from the back but it’s coming around. I always find the first hard run back after an injury time out a bit uncoordinated. Saw Dr. Guan yesterday for some adjusting and that seems to have put me…
