This Week Last Year: Bonking, Doping, and Cheating (oh my!)

By on Saturday, June 30th, 2007 | No Comments

This week last year touched on a whole range of subjects, from weight lifting to drugs to accidental cheaters and how purposefully bonk during a workout. I shared my experience of lifting weights after breaking my ring finger. It had had a week to heal, and while there were no rings that were going to [...]

This Week in Sports: NFL Europe, Sports Direct, Ray Allen

By on Friday, June 29th, 2007 | 1 Comment

This week there were a few sports stories that were worth mentioning but that didn’t need a whole lot written about them, so I am linking them up here. NFL Europe has folded after 16 years. I think that this is a bad move if the NFL thinks that they are going to expand popularity [...]

Trails.com website review and demonstration

By on Thursday, June 28th, 2007 | 6 Comments

Update: I’ve removed the links to Trails.com from this article as in the years since I’ve written the review I have heard that the company has gone downhill and is not worth using. While the trail maps are nice, there are better alternatives out there and nothing forgives poor customer service or repeated billing after [...]

By on Wednesday, June 27th, 2007 | 13 Comments

A month ago, I asked whether prosthetics should be banned from international competition in the wake of a proposed rule change by the IAAF. I then fleshed out my own thoughts after being accused of supporting the ban and deciding that I did in fact support the ban on prosthetics. The IAAF has since changed [...]

Cyclists should not sign the UCI’s anti-doping charter

By on Tuesday, June 26th, 2007 | 5 Comments

I am glad that I am not a professional cyclist right now. The sport has a rediculous amount of negative publicity heaped upon it on an annual basis because there are not only a (seemingly) large number of cheaters in the sport, but the governing body that is supposed to catch the cheaters is either [...]

Dancing as an extra workout

By on Monday, June 25th, 2007 | 3 Comments

In a continuing collaboration with Scott over at Straight to the Bar, we will be writing about alternative exercises throughout the month of June. Cross training can easily be expanded outside of the realms of running, weight lifting, bicycling and swimming. This week I would like to talk about dancing.

By on Monday, June 25th, 2007 | No Comments

Yesterday at the U.S. Track & Field Championships, Tyson Gay ran away from Wallace Spearmon to run 200 meters in 19.62 seconds, a meet record and second only to the world record 19.32 that Michael Johnson set in 1996. “The time was excellent. The race was excellent, too,” Gay said. “I wasn’t thinking about any [...]
