Flyboy, Thats an ambitious schedule. Good luck. I'm sure you and your new steed will rock both courses! Hey Dab! Good to hear from you Shannon and I went out and ran our first race since Zane Grey last April. It was the Calico Trail 50k/30k. I haven't been training at all (work/kids/sailing) but gave the 30k a shot. Shannon went with the 50k. Low and behold, Shannon got 3rd in her age group and I got 4th in my age group - (which says more about the weakness of the field than it does about a stellar performance). Anyway, the weather was good and the course is quite beautiful in parts so it was fun. Besides sailboat racing, with the Bishop Rock doublehand, the "Islands Race" and Guadalupe Island (600 nautical miles) in March, we are planning on running Old Goat 50 miler in late March. I should start training. I may be able to fake a 19 mile run, but don't think I'll be able to fake a difficult 50. Carry on! |

how bad it really is? Depends - if you like hanging out in the central business district of a large city the venue isn't bad. The start is in a nice park, the finish is exciting for some. August heat and humidity? It got up to ~90F last year, humidity wasn't bad for someone from NOLA. It is HOT though. How was the swim in the Ohio river? OK, quite warm, nothing special. Don't believe that there's no contact in a TT start - there is. It does suck waiting in line to get in the river though. How hilly are bike and run courses? Run's pretty flat. Ride isn't bad, if you're not a flatlander like me. I got up to 39.5 going down one hill - that was fun. mjlangan@hotmail.com for more details. |

| From: Hearn62 July 19, 2011 at 2:15:02 PM Have you ever heard of the `American way to die’? If not, go through the book Reversing Heart Diseases, which is written by American cardiologist Julian Whitaker. He says that millions of Americans die every year due to uncontrolled diet, lack of exercise and injurious habits like smoking. All these bad lifestyle practices generate high blood pressure and high cholesterol which normally the body is unable to withstand. The observations of Julian Whitaker, (though he mainly speaks about the American lifestyle and diseases), is very relevant in the Indian context too. Just have a look into your own lifestyle. Have you ever done anything to control your diet and thus prevent the diseases? If your answer is in the negative, then it is high time that you changed your lifestyle practices. A recent study shows that youngsters in the metros in India are more prone to health disorders than those in the rural areas, thanks to their habit of eating junk food and other bad lifestyle practices. All these trends reassert the significance of Ayurveda as an efficient healthcare system as it not only focuses on medication, but on diet, physical exercise like yogas and puts forward a distinctive lifestyle itself. The youngsters have already understood this fact and it is indicated by the growing number of people approaching ayurvedic resorts or hospitals in search of advice/therapies. |
