So I've been trying to do a little more swimming lately. And I've still been meaning to try to get in some laps during lunch here at work, there's a public pool nearby (link). My normal workout involves medium-speed laps with some quicker ones mixed in, usu I'll do a couple 100s to warm up, then maybe 4 - 250s, then 5 - 100s, then a couple more 250s, then maybe a couple more 100s, usu totalling

I don't know how much you are into Le Tour de France (TDF) but it's really interesting to follow. There are so many things going on it's unbelievable.

World Team TennisSo I went and volunteered with BBBS at a WWT event in Roseville hosted by the Sacramento Capitals on Wed night (Jul 11). I'd never been to a match like this before (and really I didn't get to see much of it because I was busy manning a station with some other folks). It's a different scoring format than regular tennis, but interesting. There are 5 matches that determine the

Here's a quote I came across again recently. Thought I'd throw it up here.Sterling Hayden - In PassingTo be truly challenging, a voyage, like a life, must rest on a firm foundation of financial unrest. Otherwise you are doomed to a routine traverse, the kind known to yachtsmen, who play with their boats at sea - "cruising," it is called. Voyaging belongs to seamen, and to the wanderers of the

Ok, so I'm cutting a little off the ride into work by driving in a little. It gives me a straight 10mi on the American River Trail and then about 4 off to get to work from there. Not too bad and a pretty nice and managable distance. This morning there was a little activity on the ride. I went for a little while and then a guy asked if he could just ride behind me and catch the draft. I said ok,

The Davis Double Century Ride 2007 (DDC 2007). I was a little nervous, I knew I wasn't really prepared because of the amount of riding I'd been doing. But kev & I did it anyway.

Where do you get your good recipes? Is it just from practice or do you have a few secret ones stored away from relatives, etc? One of my cooking consultants sent me a link for past Cook's Illustrated (CI) recipes on the web, http://longboredsurfer.com/recipes.php, it's got some good stuff in there.

When did I turn into such a pansy? One of the things I posted a little while back was that I wanted to make sure to not get injured, because I hate being injured. Well, I felt I was doing really good and getting a good base in this year until I turned my ankle at Bern & Jamie's wedding. That was just plain dumb, d'oh. It's not the worst sprain I've had, that's for sure, but then when I started

Only 7 weeks until the Davis Double Century (DDC). I've only got ~440mi ridden on my bike in the last 3 months and I'm thinking about putting in 200 in one day here pretty soon! Just got to start putting some time in on the bike. Hopefully should be easier now with it staying light longer, but does that longer light time mean more wakeboarding too?Links to previous years: \ 2004 /\ 2005 /

So I finally got around to changing the oil on my motorcycle this last weekend. I hadn't done it before and was kind of looking forward to doing it. I got this bike for a couple of reasons and one of them was that it is probably the simplest, no-nonsense, practical, fun bike I could find at the time. It's still got enough power to put a smile on my face, but there just isn't anything fancy or

Don't know why but while I was running today this quote popped into my head from one of C.S. Lewis' books - The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe."Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you."I love that line...

Yet another reminder of how fragile life is and how anything can occur in the blink of an eye. This last week was pretty full of activities and so many things. Let me go just to the weekend. Friday I went to Bernie and Jamie's wedding reception. It's always good to see everyone and participate in all the activities. Unfortunately for me, as the evening went on, I heard some boys playing

Here's an excerpt from one of the books I'm reading. Fairly interesting thoughts on one of the first relgious debates, I found it interesting, thought you might too. Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World (pg 172-173):The discussion continued for some time, and according to Rubruck's own account, it was obvious that he did not fare well in the sometimes acrimonious arguments.

What are you afraid of? Fear is a powerful, unpleasant feeling of risk or danger, either real or imagined. I've heard that knowledge of what ever you are afraid of will satiate fear. I think that is true to a certain extent, that is until the logical side and heart don't connect on that issue. There are just some things that just don't match up rationally, and that is something that makes me

Did a quick ride over out of Davis. Was just planning on a short ride, then kev and I hooked up with another guy riding and he was going out to do a loop with some hills. We decided to head out with him and it turned into a little longer outing than I think we were ready for. I had one bottle of water and no food with me. Guess I need to bring more with me when I head out for a ride...Stats:

Have I lost a little bit of that kid in me? I hope not. I met for the first time today with my little brother that I'm matched with. He asked me some questions I haven't considered in a little while.-If you could have any super powers what would they be?

My picks are in. See how they compare to yours if you want. For some reason I've got UCLA winning it all. Who knows who the Cinderella story will be this year. Everyone seems to think Florida. I'd rather see some West Coast teams knock them off. hmmmm

So it's a little bit farther ride from my house into work now. To downtown it was 11.2mi, taking me on average about 40 mins of riding time. Today I logged my distance at 20.7mi with a riding time of 73 mins. That's about an 84% increase. Which may mean riding in fewer times during the week. I would probably be happy riding in about every other day. Just have to make sure to pull myself out of

The Relay is coming up again. We will be without kevin in the van this year because of a conflict in schedule, but it still should be an awesome time.

The sun is out, Chinese New Year is over, and now it's time for college hoops. The men's brackets came out yesterday, http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/ncaatourney07/bracket. When you watch college ball, it's so much more pure than professional sports. In the pros the athletes are so talented but you just can't compete with how the college kids put themselves on the line.

How did I get dragged into another run? I was in town and not up the hill skiing, so I figured what the heck, what's another run under my belt. The girls training for the Rock'n'Roll Marathon in San Diego on June 3 convinced me to come out and run this last Sunday since they were going to be running in it. I've been running a little bit and I didn't do the Davis Stampede this year, so I was due

This season started out very slow with a bleak outlook for snow. I didn't get up the hill and actually skiied for the first time this season on Feb 14! They also changed the vertical plus thing on the season pass, so instead of scanning in each time you're getting on the lift you just do it at the beginning. This isn't as beneficial for us who hit a lot of runs, so getting this bonus feature is

Here's a little page for wakeboarding stuff. I remember doing water sports a little growing up. My uncle had a jet boat for a while and I remember getting dragged behind it for a little while on a knee board and tube. Then maybe even tried water skiing a little. I remember not really liking being in the water where I couldn't see what was in there with me, I think I was a little scared. But since

It's the holiday season and I'm home in the area this year! I just wanted to write a quick note to say Merry Christmas. I hope you have a great one and get to spend some really good time with those you care about. I'm hoping to get some hard copy cards out, but if I don't this may have to suffice for now.I put together a monthly update of what was going on in my life as of late. I can't get my

You want to see a couple of cute puppies? Well, check it out, there are a couple new additions to the house. Trev got him some doggies today. We think they are about 10 or 11 weeks old. He found out about them from one of his co-workers, at whose house they were at for a while. They are still yet to be named, but I'm sure will come soon. So for now the house is in the process of being doggy

Strange to say, but I had my first persimmon this last weekend. At least I don't think I've had one before, they're not too bad, kind of like an apple in a way, but good. That's it, just a persimmony thought... Link:http://www.crfg.org/pubs/ff/persimmon.html

4 of us got in a good day of climbing in the bay area. We started in Danville and made our way to the top of Mt Diablo. We went up North Gate Rd, then to the summit and decended via South Gate Rd. Many of the links I've seen recommend coming up South Gate Rd and then decending North Gate... Guess we're a little backwards, but what's new?!
