Race: Tinman Triathlon Location: Tupper Lake, New York Distance: 1.9K swim, 90K bike and 21.5K Run Description: Swim was in a lake with a rectangular buoy line. Bike was rolling with good pavement conditions. Run was hilly for the first 5 miles then relatively flat (mix of pavement and trail). Conditions: Cool and [...] Labelled as “Organic Fuel” for the mind, body and soul, Steaz Energy drink, is just another can full of sugar except costs twice as much ($1.99). This product can be found in the organics section at your grocery store. Over 80% of the ingredients are organic so there allowed to market it as such. However, [...] The weeks have flown by since my last race in California 70.3. My time has been filled with a lot of training but even more with soul searching; where to next? Racing has started to become a large portion of my life, especially in the absence of a true 9-5 white/blue collar job. Getting [...] So here’s a story for you. I wouldn’t have shared this except this scenario happened to me twice, in the same store, in the same place, and almost at the same time. Last Sunday I was at Bushtakah’s discount sale on the hunt for gels. I ran out so I wanted to take full [...] I’m not as lucky as my brother who is gallivanting Virginia’s mountains. If you have time, check him out on Facebook (or here) if you’re wondering what the terrain looks like. Trips’ = What I call triple workout days. So I had back to back trips’ concluding today. Lots of swim, bike and [...] Finished Racing Weight by Matt Fitzgerald last week. Picked it up in California so I’m not sure if it is available in Canada yet. The book is about how to eat (no kidding) for a better performance. Fitzgeralds writing style is a bit wordy but I think anyone could get into it. That [...] In case you are trying to make “good choices” and find yourself heading toward the words “organic”, beware! Appearances CAN be deceiving: MYTH: Organic companies are small and environmentally friendly. Find out where your food comes from. You’ll be surprised. If you think that tiny little organic food company has a halo over [...]
You are what you eat. So you eat ham, are you a pig? I eat mostly healthy. Like you eat veggies with gravy? I don’t have time to make supper. But you have time to watch 2 hours of tv? I hate cooking. Is turning on a stove that complicated? Food is such [...] Junk Drawer It’s a Recovery Week between big volume builds and I’m sitting here relaxing, pondering and surfing. eDiscs from eLoad rock my socks. They taste like Sweet Tarts give you a boost when you need it AND are amusingly fizzy. My family is irreverent, caustic and some might even say “crazy” and [...] Wow! Guess it’s been awhile. I wish I could say that extraordinary events have kept me from updating but truth be told, I live an exceptionally boring life. If I’m not swimming or biking or running, I’m resting or stretching or eating. Such is the life of an Ironman-in-training. The only real excitement is [...] |
