This Week Last Year: World Championships and Antonio Gates

ByBlaine Moore August 19, 2006

This week last year concentrated on the wrapping up of the World Championships in Helsinki.

The World Championships in Helsinki wrapped up, ending with the Marathon. The first cheater was also caught this week last year: Neelam Jaswant Singh.
I predicted the record chase between Asafa Powell and Justin Gatlin. Wilson Kipketer announced his retirement.
In an attempt to force Antonio Gates to sign a contract, the San Diego Chargers suspended him for the season opener.

There were also a few other small football and running related news items, but nothing worth reporting on.

ByBlaine Moore February 16, 2008

This week last year I was fighting off an infection that kept me away from the computer for extended periods. Scott continued our series on books by writing about health and fitness books. I pointed out that lifting weights is a means to an end and not an end in and of itself. In doping…

This Week Last Year: A Dead Athlete, Diets, and Goals
ByBlaine Moore December 23, 2006

I responded quite a bit to other websites in the neighborhood this week last year, including Straight to the Bar and Run Mystic. I continued my animated series by demonstrating how to do a seated calf raise on a machine. I also suggested that you stroll about between sets when working out. I pointed out…
