This morning I got back from a weekend of beach camping up in Ventura. We left Friday around noon and headed up for a weekend of relaxing and a little surfing. We were unsure if there was going to be any surf but we were pleasantly surprised to find waist to chest high surf. Below […]
OK!!! So Paul and I have been working hard the past month or two to prepare for the launch of our new website, amateurendurance.com.
Its an online magazine that we created in hopes of educating beginner/amateur athletes about endurance athletics and promoting a positive endurance athletics community. Of course this wouldn’t be possible without an excellent […]
I’ve been taking it easy the past couple days due to my knee injury. It is starting to feel a little better! So I have been using the time to work on other projects. Tomorrow is a swim-run workout at La Jolla Cove with Breakaway training and I will be missing it as well. Instead, […]
This upcoming weekend is the Encinitas Sprint Triathlon! It is one of a few that I haven’t raced in San Diego. Instead, the past two years I have gone and taken photos of my friends. This year will be no different. I will be out there on the course with my camera and a smile […]
It is 11:30pm and I just got back from the 2008 Wildflower Triathlons! First off, I am happy that I am getting to sleep in my bed tonight. Second, I am stoked to get a hot shower and third, I am happy to see Danny Boy. (my dog)
The trip was great. Paul, Carrie, Mike and […]

I’ve now owned both Polar and Garmin heart rate computers for over 2 years and I have found I like both of them for different reasons. So here is my opinion on Polar and Garmin watches.
Polar:
The Good: I have used the S725 and the RS200 more recently. What I like about the Polar computers is […]
To whom it may concern:
Once a year there is a weekend that stands out amongst the rest. It’s a weekend where champions are made, tents are pitched, and over 200, 5-gallon jugs of bodily fluids are sweat out by over 6000 athletes… all working there butts off to get to that cold refreshing brewski waiting […]
I should clarify… thats not cocaine… its caffeine in powder form. I promise! (Refrence)
Those who have been around a while remember I used to keep a Diet & Nutrition log on my blog. Over the past few months I removed it because lets face it, the number of hot dogs I eat a month really […]
