After Louisville last year, I attempted multiple times to get back on the training bandwagon but each time my knee told me, “Uhm. Not yet!” It was pretty disheartening when even swimming would hurt – kick drills were verboten and an odd push off the wall could terminate a session early. I had settled into a [...] You might remember that one of my chosen blogs is Steve Stenzel’s “Steve in a Speedo?!“? Well he’s been doing a series called “Does it Work?” reviewing tools that triathletes use on a day-to-day basis. Yesterday’s entry was Steve’s review of four online training logs … Beginner Triathlete, Buckeye Outdoors, Daily Mile, and Training Peaks. [...] We all have our favourite “go to” sites when we’re in need of information – bike setup figures, swim techniques, new interval workouts – and they fill a very important role in the 21st Century athlete’s Big Bag o’Tricks, but what about blogs? For me, there is a pretty hard set of criteria ANY reading material [...] Reposted from Precision Nutrition … something we all need reminding of, particularly at this time of year! Food: Where We ALL Go Wrong by Ryan Andrews, December 15th, 2009. It doesn’t matter if you are “Paleo Person,” “Veg Guru,” or “Flexitarian.” If you’re healthy, fit and lean — and have been for a while — I bet you [...] For the next 4 Mondays, the LMS crew is putting together their Wish Lists for The Big Day. While some of these ideas might be classified in the “Dream On!” realm there will be plenty of things that are more rooted in reality!

When immersed within the triathlon world, it’s hard to remember how the rest of the world sees us. And for those that cross the finish line, once you’ve accepted the accolades and given yourself a well-deserved pat on the back (or [...] Wow. Been pretty quiet round here. Guess it’s officially the “Off Season”. helllloooo! After a few days, then weeks of frantically wondering, “What’s Next? What’s Next?” I’ve sashayed gracefully into, “Ah! This ain’t so bad!” Meaning no agenda, no “program”, no specific workout. My knee still being semi-bunged up is of course contributing somewhat to the [...] Looville Well. It certainly was a fun-filled week! Sunday dawned clear and the promise of hot hot heat … a perfect training opp as we headed bright’n’early to the Valley. Too bad I’d had a crappy sleep, bumping my hip hematoma twice in the night – a jarring painful, take-my-breath-away experience. Got to the race site in plenty of time but forgot to [...] Last weekend was the final *oomph* in a 3-week build and the largest volume to date. Fancy Lake Thursday was a long swim, 4500m open water, at Fancy Lake. I started before the regular practice doing laps from one end to the dock and back (600m). It worked perfectly as part way through others started their [...] |
