This Week Last Year: Le Tour, Marathon Majors, Dead Cyclists

There was a lot of news this week last year, most of which was good with some big announcements.

• I demonstrated how to do a dumbbell bench press in my animated series.
• The World Marathon Majors were announced, the first year of races having passed since then. And I was completely wrong about my prediction on not running Boston for a few years; it will be this year’s spring marathon! In other announcements, the Tour de France starts in London this year.
• Eleanora Berlanda had Olympic torch stolen from her. In other news you’d rather not have to hear about, BC Basketball team accidently killed a bicyclist on their way to practice.
• Bode Miller couldn’t leave well enough alone and decided to call out Bonds and Armstrong.
• In NFL news, I was not happy with the NFL playoffs disappointed me, and it was announced that the NFL Network will keep people from being able to watch 8 games this season. Had Time Warner not taken over my local cable company, I would have been able to watch them.
