The Tape of Love (The Sticky Stuff): Christmas Eve Shindig
http://issandscrambly.blogspot.com/2012/03/christmas-eve-shindig.html
The Tape of Love (The Sticky Stuff). Monday, March 19, 2012. I LOVE having Christmas Eve at my house. 2011 was the second time I got to host family, and I just love it! It lends itself SO easily to having those warm, cozy feelings, with good food, music, crisp air (no snow, thanks), and everyone on great behavior. ;-) This was a Larsen Christmas, and we ate it up. Quite literally. It was supposed to be a snacky dinner, but yeah. This is what we ended up with. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mr. Tuesday Pants: March 2010
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 10, 2010. The Two Sides To Training. There are two sides to training for an Ironman. There's the physical side, the one that most people are aware of, ask questions and are curious about. They want to know "How many miles did you ride this week? Or "What is your long run up to now? The other side is just as important if not more so. And that's the mental side. This is where I found myself last week. I do believe that I will. Labels: Ironman St. George.

Mr. Tuesday Pants: Place Your Bets
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2010/04/place-your-bets.html
Tuesday, April 27, 2010. I'm not going to be accepting bets on finishing time, while I have a goal time that I won't divulge here, just finishing is a big accomplishment. I will be accepting your bets on how many calories I'll burn during the day though. To be a nice guy I'll give you a base to start from. I did a 110 miles ride one Saturday where I burned just over 4,800 calories and an 18 mile run where I burned almost 1,800 calories. unfortnuately I don't have a swim for you. So start your guessing.

Mr. Tuesday Pants: An Open Letter to Alberto Contador
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2010/07/open-letter-to-alberto-contador.html
Tuesday, July 20, 2010. An Open Letter to Alberto Contador. Dear Al, (can I call you Al? I understand that you've gotten the short end of the stick at times and that in America's eyes you are the one who defied orders and "attacked our Lance" on stage 7 of the 2009 Tour on Arcalis in the Pyrenees. But let's put 2009 behind us. You know that was a bone head move, we know that was a bone head move and it got you more enemies than allies. Let's move on. Love and Kisses,. I do not like Al.

Mr. Tuesday Pants: Lesson Taught But Not Learned
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2010/04/lesson-taught-but-not-learned.html
Friday, April 9, 2010. Lesson Taught But Not Learned. Bike: 139.9 miles. Since I started training and racing triathlons a few years ago I've lived by the adage: "If the furnace is hot enough it will burn anything", meaning that if you're working out and training then your body will use whatever fuel you provide it. I still believe that this is true to a point but have learned many times that doesn't mean your body will burn the fuel efficiently. House for dinner to watch the MMA. I can't imagine that I w...

Mr. Tuesday Pants: Rest Week & The Wall
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2010/02/rest-week-wall.html
Saturday, February 20, 2010. Rest Week and The Wall. I tried to confirm this gradient on Map My Ride's website where you can map a stretch of road and it will show you the profile of what you've mapped out along with the gradient of the hills but I found that Map My Ride won't show you anything over 20%. So I'm going to have to trust what my watch was showing me. Labels: Ironman St. George. February 22, 2010 at 2:48 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ironman St. George. Lone Star Half Ironman.

Mr. Tuesday Pants: Eat It Up
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2009/03/eat-it-up.html
Monday, March 2, 2009. Kati and I were watching a new show on Food network called Food Detective. Now let's talk calories. The brand that I prefer is the Kroger's Mint Chocolate Chip. There are 14 serving in this container (they say that one serving is a half cup, Ha! I figure that I will have to slow down my consumption when training is over because at the current rate I am burning nearly 9,000 a week just in workouts. Call it the upside of training like a madman - you get to eat wonderful food. :-).

Mr. Tuesday Pants: The Bike
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2010/05/bike.html
Wednesday, May 5, 2010. As there was no shade or cover of any kind on the entire ride. For the first 22 miles I was averaging 16.6mph (All these average speeds I didn't know until after the race) and felt really strong. This sucker went for 1 mile, the first half mile was steady around 8-9% with a bump up for the last half mile that peaked somewhere around 11-12% and the n got. I bombed down the descents. Shorts on my seat mounted bottle cages, ripped my shorts and ended up getting caught by one of the v...

Mr. Tuesday Pants: Training For Mass Swim Starts
http://mrtuesdaypants.blogspot.com/2008/10/joy-of-mass-swim-starts.html
Thursday, October 2, 2008. Training For Mass Swim Starts. Last month August Filet. Did a run down of how our last race went and had a perfect description of how a mass swim start. Is For those of you that still can't picture the insanity of it all here is a Clif Bar commercial that depicts it. Do you need volunteers to help you train for the swim portion of the tri?
