It has been nearly 2 months since we signed up for Ironman Mont-Tremblant(IMMT) for August 2012. With just over 3 months to go before Ironman Arizona(IMAZ), we have to start thinking seriously about how to at least become adequate at climbing hills…and descending them, just as importantly. In my immediate area, there simply aren’t [...]
Photo by iChaz Today was the 19th Annual Firecracker 100k and 50k ride. This was my 5th or 6th time doing this ride, and I still love it. You start out at Salt Box Village in Cary at 8 a.m. and head out of town on Kildaire Farm Rd. This ride is great because [...] Happy New Year everyone. My wife and I were just returning to Raleigh last night around 6pm from a quick daytrip. I had my new camera with me, and was hoping to get a couple of pictures of the Christmas Lights downtown, before they all get taken down in early January(tomorrow).
Apparently I [...] 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 [...]
The last several weeks have been quiet. The 2010 season was over and the 2011 season has yet to begin. There hasn’t been much in the way of exciting entertainment. That all changed this past weekend….Roadtrip!!! I try to write about things that other people would like to read, places to go, or things [...] If you’re the sort that doesn’t like to be cooped up inside all day on Thanksgiving Day, check out your local Turkey Trot next time. In Raleigh, the annual Turkey Trot starts at Ridgewood shopping center, and weaves back in to the surrounding neighborhood off of Ridge Rd. You can run any of the following: 8k, [...] Labor Day weekend finished off with the Tour de Moore Century Ride in Southern Pines, NC. Southern Pines is beautiful. It’s pretty much horse farm country, and right next door to Pinehurst, NC, also beautiful for all of the golf courses. This would be my first time participating in the Tour de Moore and my first [...] Have you ever walked through a field of corn? It’s pretty amazing how tall the stalks can get. Now imagine that same field was full of water and you had to swim through it. Well, it’s kind of shocking at first, but then once you realize it’s just corn, it’s not that big of a deal. [...] This weekend was looking to be very busy, so IMFL training was looking like it may need to take a back seat for a day or two(no big deal, since this was a recovery week). This was not your typical road trip of leisurely sightseeing and goofing around. This was the kind of trip where you [...] Friday kicked of with a planned 30-40 min Open Water Swim. I did some checking around to find a good spot out by Jordan Lake. At the last minute I spoke to John over at Inside Out Sports, and he recommended a great spot over off of Pea Ridge Rd. This spot was perfect. Easy access, [...] |
