Fundimentals

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

This morning I walked and talked my way around the GA Marathon Expo. Nothing too exciting, but I did make some contacts that may be useful in the planning of the Fool’s Gold and the BURN 24.
By the time returned home and took the dogs out the rain had arrived…..I guess I should have [...]

So I rode a pink bike….

Thursday I bonked. Not like “I can’t go on” bonk, but more like a “it’s going to take a while to drag my butt home” type bonk. I did an hour of tempo with my friend Rich out on the Vomet. I planned for only 3 hour, but ended up doing 5. [...]

I’m finally tired….so is the Port-o-potty.

We tested the new Light & Motion Stellas at Yargo on Monday. Perfect! They are light, bright and last about twice as long as the ARCs. HID will be dead and gone soon. The Stella is more of spot light than the ARC, so there is [...]
