So I got a couple of great comments on my last post – that got me to think a little bit. Rather than reply as another comment, I thought I’d write another post to continue the conversation and post some thoughts.
Thus far Evan and Jeff have provided some great thoughts – here are my stream of thought responses, which …
Read More- Several weeks ago, an email chain I had with a friend devolved into suggestions for writings. I started thinking about some of the suggestions and realized that they were actually extremely good suggestions. Some of them supported my belief in the open sharing of knowledge, while others would send me down the road to …
Read More I just posted my Triple T race report. It was an excellent race, and all of my expectations going into it were blown away. It’s amazing what consistant hard work can do. Now my job is to just keep backing it up with great (enjoyable) training!
I’ve got two “good” posts in the works – watch for atleast one of them to …

That’s a picture of my leg the day I had the hard cast removed back in late January.
Not much to post today except for a an update that the 28 day period ending yesterday (3rd “month” of 2010), was the biggest 3rd “month” I’ve done on the bike since the purchase of my powermeter TSS/kJ wise. So that was …
