The Tri Lounge May 20, 2009 to May 22, 2009

Date: Friday May 22nd, 2009 8:39 Comment 185062 KP of SD email: @: As well, you should have a 39 up front to go with that 25 or 27 in back.
Date: Friday May 22nd, 2009 8:38 Comment 185061 KP of SD email: @: JD, the very first thing you do in Honu out of T1 is climb a steep section. The worst time and place to load up your legs is when your blood is all in your shoulders. Plus, in that heat, your stomach will struggle to assimilate calories as 50% of the normal blood used for digestion will be shuttled elsewhere. If you are over geared with a 23 you will spike power grinding up the hill back to the Queen K. That will likely spike HR and steal muscle glycogen that is difficult to replace during a HIM. What is over geared? In a HIM where you finish in the time frame you desire you should be able to ride the flats and rollers at mod-hard (about 84-86 percent of functional threshold power or best 60min). On the extended climbs you'll want to target something close to Olympic distance efforts or threshold. If you can't climb an 8-9 percent grade in your 23 and keep it well under threshold when blood is in your shoulders I would take a 25 and maybe a 27. I used a 27 specifically for that climb.

Laura of @ email: @: But, the scary moment was moving her car (a 1985 Chevy Celebrity) over in the garage so I could park mine next to it. About 2 months ago, she'd told me that "a big red light" was on whenever she started the car, but she was ignoring it. I found out what that "big, red, light" was. NO BRAKES!! The brakes are out and she had been driving like that for two months...

Vimp stood in your living room!!!! I made him banana bread and we went to Montgomery Inn!" I think hubby may actually have a crush on Vimp and doesn't want me to know, so he's playing stupid.

She looks in the mirror and thinks she looks much better and she can tell she needed to do that and even convinces herself she feels better. Then one day, she looks in the mirror and wonders who that butch is and she grows her hair back and finds another guy and the universe has achieved balance again. So, if you must dump cable, save yerself some time and put up a dish.

Date: Thursday May 21st, 2009 11:28 Comment 184919 KP of SD email: @: From ESPN: Orlando matches up great against Cleveland. After Wednesday night's Game 1 comeback win, the Magic have won three of the four meetings between the two teams this season. The Magic's two regular-season wins were blowouts, while Cleveland's one victory was a white-knuckler at home. What's scary about Wednesday night's game is that it had all the marks of the three regular-season meetings. Once again, Orlando completely controlled the defensive glass, as Cleveland finished with just eight offensive boards from 36 missed shots. Again, the Cavs not named LeBron couldn't get to the line, as the supporting cast earned only seven free throws, and one of them was a technical. Again, Mickael Pietrus played a ton of minutes (30) off the bench as the primary LeBron James defender. And again, Orlando's much-maligned point guard tandem was unusually productive (16 points and 11 assists combined, against just one turnover).
