Quantifying a workout even when you have all the gadgets is still hard to evaluate. How does one compare an easy long ride to a short hard time trial? Enter the point system combined with a lactate test. A lactate test will give you the specified zones you need to work in. Zone 1 = [...] It’s interesting when someone says “I want to run XX:XX time”. Outside qualifying for Boston, it really doesn’t mean anything. Yes it is a goal but it’s not like predicting a time will determine your outcome. How will you know what your legs will feel like? What happens if the weather changes? Or [...] Goal for 2011? I think so! The Long Course Canadian National Triathlon will take place in the Eastern Townships of Quebec. I’m thinking mountain chalet with a few days of riding afterwards; Dad you in? Most people probably don’t think of racing as an investment. It’s more about the goal than the actual reward. What about the people who do win races. Are they only entering a race based on the prize or some other factor? A relization this year is, at the base pro/amateur level, running pays [...] Did a 10K on the weekend, Running Room St. Patricks Day race, to test the leg speed. I’m always impressed what the body can do on tired legs. After leading from start to finish I finished in an overall time of [...] Saturday was to be my last tune-up race before the “Big Race” at Timberman on August 23rd. Training has been going well and I’ve been proud of myself that I have been able to maintain my training along with working the past 2 weeks. Having a job and training is hard on the head [...] This weekend was suppose to be the calm before the storm. In two weeks I’m going to try and tackle 2 tris in 12 hours. I’ve only done 2 Olympics and sprints in my life and in less than a day, I’m going to make each of those 3! More on that nonsense [...] Here we go again! After three weeks straight of racings, this was to be the final venture for the next little while. Like last week Amanda and I both traveled to Tremblant but this time to do our first triathlon of the year. We packed up the car on Friday and stayed in a [...] In this week’s How Much Does It Cost section, we’re going to do the cost analysis of Kona, the Ironman World Championships. If you are a triathlete, there is no bigger day in this sport than the Ford Ironman World Championship. It is the race that defined our sport as it came of [...] First off, I’d like to give props to my girlfriend Amanda, who got second in her first trail race ever. Of course it had to be the toughest one ever as well! I got a hard earned 3rd place. This will be our last trail run till the fall. Next up is the Olympic [...] First running race of the season today. The short of it for people whose lives are too busy is I ran 1:18:13 (results here). Back in February I came across this race, “National 1/2 Marathon Championships” held in Montreal. I figured it would be a good way to kick off the season. The race [...]  |
