Saturday, May 29, 2010. Road Biking: A Hate-Hate Relationship. I hate road biking. This is not an essay. There will be no glitzy, eye catching introduction. No smoothing transitions, no clever thesis. I don’t want anybody to be remotely confused about the facts in this piece: namely, that I think road biking out and out sucks. To those who argue that you can adventure farther and further on the bike then you can on foot. This is true, but if I want to go further than I could on foot, I would hop in m...

Rest and Volume: The Response

Saturday, July 17, 2010. With The Showdown over, and all the naysayers proven wrong – that’s why I created the poll – one would suspect that things in the ‘running’ department would have cooled off between Brad and Kieran, aside from the continuous gloating on the ego-manic Kieran side. However, because I don’t want to seem like a wimp on my own blog, I have a counter proposal. July 20, 2010 at 11:01 PM. And whats wrong with bears, just a little extra motivation. July 21, 2010 at 12:10 PM. The Showdown: ...

Friday, August 13, 2010. I Fought the Law, And.Well, Take a Guess. His Interaction with the Law Went. Officer: Can I see your license and registration? Kieran: Here you go. Officer: I pulled you over for driving in the high occupancy/car pool lane, which you knew it was. Kieran: Hmm, interesting point, Officer. It is true that I was driving in the high occupancy lane with only one person in the car. Officer: Well, that’s a $110 ticket. And I wasn’t even speeding? And the fine is only $110? Officer: Allri...

Saturday, June 5, 2010. I just read that Jamie Sale and David Pelletier of Canadian Olympic figure-skating fame are getting divorced. The two won a gold medal together, and have skated together for most of their lives. And they have a kid. But the kicker here is that they still plan to skate together. Which will be the most awkward experience of their lives. I bet David conveniently 'forgets' to catch her in the first big throw. David: "What was that honey? I can have the coffee maker AND the BMW? Video ...

Friday, June 11, 2010. France 0 - Uruguay 0. The French have good forwards who can’t score. Uruguay stinks at defense, and have a highlighter-yellow goalie. Uruguay received a red card, a bunch of yellows, survived a last minute penalty kick. In my boredom of wisdom tooth removal, I have decided a new feature is in order. For every World Cup game I watch, I will attempt to summarize the game in 32 words or less. Why? South Africa v. Mexico. The World Cup of Soccer has begun! Thursday, June 10, 2010.

Wednesday, July 28, 2010. While some of you feel it may be the height of hypocrisy for someone with my background and tastes to post such an article, I have a firm belief that it has just reinforced my decision to retire from competitive year-round training. If you follow the LTAD, it basically means I'm making a beeline for the 'Active for Life' side of things. Because I will never give up days like this. Tuesday, July 27, 2010. Location: Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Ontario. The Showdown was set for 6...

Wednesday, November 17, 2010. I know, I know I have been fairly inactive on the blog front of late. Actually, complete inactive for at least 3 months, but that has been the result of a new development. After some lengthy contract negotiations with FasterSkier.com (I was holding out for a Lear jet, they offered me a Razor scooter, we settled on a ride in Nat Herz's station wagon) This Is Not A Test has moved to become a FasterSkierblog. I real blog on a real website? See you on the other side!

Saturday, July 3, 2010. Canada Road Race - The Race Report. 657 AM – Kieran rolls out of bed to the sound of Brad banging down his door, and the Barters arriving to drive the Jones’ to the race. 703 – Kieran walks out the door fully kitted, including breakfast, shorts, and a bathroom break. 751 – Minimal warm-up takes place. Some light jogging, followed by some heavier jogging, and finally, some really heavy jogging. Kieran: “Allright, I’ll see you at the finish line”. Kieran: “Hurrghhghg”. 12:04 –...
