I was going to call this “How to Keep Your House from Falling Down”, but didn’t want to sound overly dramatic. Back in the summer we were doing some work on the old family farm. We noticed an area in the hallway that was sagging a bit, and seemed to be kind of week. The Summer [...]

As I alluded to previously, we had to figure out a way to get 2 mangled boat lifts out of the water. The weather was nice that day, but the water was still pretty choppy, making the process much more difficult. Throughout the clean up process, I’ve come to believe that bigger is better. Ex: Get [...] Nine days ago as I prepared for hurricane Irene’s arrival I was thinking I’m either going to be in Raleigh with no power and eating out of an ice cooler, or down at the Pamlico River with no power and eating out of an ice cooler. I just had that feeling. Most of the media seem [...] With our recent White Lake 70.3 race in the books, we’ve had some time for some “unstructured workouts where Coach pretty much says keep the workouts minimal or just cross-train type activities. Well our next 5 day period of May 20-24 can only be described as “the main reason I went to college”. Sometimes you have [...] Triathlon swimming is tricky. I think it’s God’s way of leveling the playing field so that the strong cyclist or runner won’t totally dominate any given race. If you recall, last year I started my 2nd Ironman journey after about 5-6 years of really no triathlons of any kind. I went back to the basics using [...] We all make New Year’s Resolutions. But when you look back on the previous year, do you even remember what your resolution was? If not, you’re not alone. Only 12% actually keep their resolutions from year to year according to Wiki. This is a terrible track record and it tells me 2 things. We are either [...] On Monday afternoon I read that Monday night/Tuesday morning would be a pretty cool Lunar eclipse. I decided that would be pretty cool to try and get a photo of. So I did some quick research to try and figure out the best way to take a picture of the moon. As it turns out, this [...] Over the past several days I’ve received several questions from folks regarding how I avoid hydration/cramping type issues on the bike/run. The past several weeks I’ve been doing more group rides on the weekends, 2 of which have involved 700+ cyclists on the road. It’s July, and in the Southeastern U.S., it has been hot and [...] Somewhere between the first and second month of using Sport Tracks I discovered the “Training Load plugin”. The immediate response was, “Oh my god, you can track all of that?” At first glance, the graph is just a big mess with all kinds of bars, lines, shaded areas, and acronyms that don’t mean much. Once you [...] A couple months back I read a really good post on How to create maps/courses for your Garmin Forerunner. I had been working out with my Garmin 310XT for several months, exploring some of the possibilities, so this was perfect timing. Then I started to wonder, what if you’re not exactly sure what route you want [...] |
