A lot of my family members know that I love to run. Some of them know that I like to do triathlons, but really - to them - running a marathon and doing a triathlon are the same thing, crazy. Because I’ve developed an identity as “the runner” it seems that when I get gifts [...]

There is sensible weight loss dieting and then there are mad fad diets. The sensible diets recommend a slow steady approach to losing weight with controlled and restrictive eating. By contrast the mad fad diets offer the promise of huge weight reduction in a very short stretch of time.
It seems impossible for these very low [...]

There have been a few questions on my mind as I continue to work on establishing our personal training and coaching business. The questions result from two philosophies that influence our industry:
1. Economic Cost correlated to Personal Reward
2. Behavioral Choices correlated to Economic Cost
As you can imagine, the current economic climate is starting to make [...]

When I was a project manager a few years ago, working flat out, I often didn’t make a gym session I’d planned. Sometimes I didn’t make the three gym sessions I planned for the whole week.
Either there would be a sudden meeting called about some triviality over lunchtime (my gym time) or there’d be a real crisis that needed dealing with.
When I got home I’d be too tired to go out again and there was only on

It’s fairly common in conversations about triathlon training today to discuss watts, normalized power, TSS, functional thresholds and intensity factors. These terms are all the result of more cyclists using power meters to monitor training intensity and even race efforts.
I have been using WKO+ (formerly cycling peaks) for a little while now, primarily with my [...]

Egads. I stayed up waaaaaaay too late watching poll returns. I am indeed happy to have all the election stuff over with. I don’t even watch TV and it was too much. Well, mostly my own doing. And I pulled out the bag of M&M’s because I just couldn’t take the excitement/stress of it all. [...]

There is no doubt that out of all the road running distances available, the marathon has by far the most appeal. Nearly everyone who has run a 5k or a 10k will, at some stage, dream about running the ?big one? one day. And, even though this is not recommended, a lot of would-be runners [...]

I had a chance to review a Tech4O running watch. It?s sort of like a pedometer that you wear on your wrist like a watch. It uses an ?advanced accelerator technology? to determine if you are running and how fast your movements are based on your strides, and then it calculates your distance based on [...]

I ran in the Saratoga Bridges Great Pumpkin Challenge 10K today. Rainy and cold, and I kicked ass. No, really.

I love running.
I don’t love swimming, biking, push-ups, weightlifting, discus throwing, tossing the caber or Johnny on the Pony.
Running seven days a week is really, really bad for my legs, so my off-days are off-days. I don’t run and I don’t (grimace) cross-train.
That is, until an injury forced me to find some way to maintain [...]
