HOW I KEEP MY LIFE ORGANIZED!
Friday, May 12, 2006 at 6:50AM We recorded this week's Coach's Corner teleconference and I'm putting the first half of it in this week's podcast. Click Here to Listen. I also play a voicemail from the UK and announce the first ever virtual triathlon in Second Life. Details are still to come, but you better get in there and practice!
Thursday, May 4, 2006 at 10:29AM What's better than doing a sprint triathlon? How about a sprint triathlon in your own town and having pros show up and start in your wave?
Today's podcast is the audio review of the Tri-de-Mayo, a rather small sprint tri with some big names. When there's only 300 people, pros like Jamie Cleveland and Andrea Fisher really stand out. Click here to listen!
As you can guess, this show has some great audio from the race. It includes interviews with Jamie and Andrea, a pre and post race commentary by myself and my beautiful co-host Emily, and a couple of voicemails. It is a definite "dont miss" show that will remind you of your own racing experiences.
There's two other issues we need to chat about. First, Zentri has been inducted into the Race Athlete Performance Network. The RAPN is a collection of the best podcasts and blogs about endurance sports and will hopefully result in some revenue! I've spent a lot of time on our mothership site (www.raceathlete.com) and the content is really good.
Second, I mentioned on this show that I received a ice pack from Snow Pack (www.snowpackusa.com) It's actually pretty darn cool! I must admit that I'm not an ice-user, so I was struggling with a reason to test it out. Well, I was really sore after this race and used it on my shin and instep. It worked pretty darn good! The big selling point is that the stuff has a consistancy of snow and molds to fit your body.
Ok, enough of that. Check out the show and visit www.raceathlete.com!
Monday, May 1, 2006 at 9:50AM I cobbled together the audio I recorded from the MS 150 into a show and you can check it out here. It was a great experience and I want to thank all those that donated, especially www.teamforkids.org. The ride totalled 175 miles and traveled from Houston to Austin over two days.
I decided to be weird (big suprise) and do the whole thing on a single-speed road bike geared at 48 x 18. There was much consternation by certain folks that I wouldn't be able to make it, and I found that laughable. EVERYTHING used to be done on single-speeds, including the Tour de France, and those bikes used to weigh 50 lbs. Check out the show to find out if I was able to climb the steep hills on day two without falling off my bike!
Thursday, April 27, 2006 at 6:51AM Hey, tri-homies! I finally got all the audio from Cav and got the time to assemble it into a podcast. (Click here to listen). It's great stuff from inside the mind of a first time Ironman who pulled it off in 11 hours! I also included two voicemails from the Tour de Georgia. Wow!
The intro music is the song EOF from Computer Science rapper MC Plus+. Check out his website at www.mcplusplus.com. It's great stuff. Here's an email I got from him just yesterday -
"Brett B,What up homie? Of course you can play it patna. I really appreciate thatyou are feelin' what MC Plus+ is trying to do. Please play it and I'd appreciate if you could tell people that they can donate money so I can getthis second album to happen.Look out for the second album coming this summer.Much Love,MC Plus+"
The next podcast will be the audio from the MS 150 bike ride and then I'll have audio from a sprint triathlon. W00t!
Saturday, April 22, 2006 at 7:00PM Hey, yos! Halfway through the MS150 and relaxing in a team tent.
Riding singlespeed, which has been fun so far, but 'morrow is going to
be really hilly. Gregg's doing everything short of betting money that
I'm gonna have to walk some of the hills in particular. He doesn't know
about my Tyler hill training! More later.
