The title was the most important thing I had to say, so...for lack of any good transition on this Friday afternoon... Gotta love that feeling when your entire body acts as if it has rigor mortis during the workout. The onset takes a little longer if you're not at altitude, but when I did the 8 X

I've been thinking lately about the lack of a great triathlon website. When I started running in college in 2000 LetsRun.com was just starting out and was emerging as the go to place for running news. They've gotten even better in the last 9 years by sticking to what they do best: 1) Gather all t

Sean's laying it on with the swimming this week. 17k yards in the first 3 days of the week. I thought I had Pete yesterday at the swim and started talking trash to him but miraculously he got it back together and beat me out to finish off the set. Here's a pic from a crit ride a couple of weeks ago

Here's some pics from a ride that Cyrus, Pete, and I went on last week up Golden Gate Canyon. Pete may look happy in the pics but he was whining to quit the climbing half the time. Then once we stopped climbing he decided he wanted to add on. Then he decided he wanted to cut the run after
