Video - How Tofu is Made

This is a really cool video showing how high quality tofu is created.  The film is full of nice touches, my favorite being the guy's shirt that says, "Who's your tofu master?"

Silicone Bracelets - Survey

Hey, ZenTri fans!  I'm putting in an order for silicone bracelets and wanted your input on what we should get.  These will be on sale on the site and also available for a discount or free for members of the upcoming members-only section - ZenTriCult.

Leave in the comments what kind of silicone bracelets you would prefer.  I'm looking for color and phrase.  For example, "Black with 'I see you hill' printed on it." would be great.  I can get almost any color and phrase.  Thanks!!!

Upcoming Test - Carbo-Pro vs. Perpetuem

I went all crazy on the ultra-webs yesterday and ordered Carbo-Pro to start testing it out as a training/racing fuel.  It's pretty much maltodextrin and nothing else, which has a lot of fans.  I have a lot of mediocre days mixed in with my great days, so trying different fuels is always a smart bet to see if that's the issue.

I've been using Perpetuem for a while.  It has fat and other stuff in it, which gives a lot of people mixed results.  I'm hoping to see more sustained power on long bike rides; that's where I get lethargic.

Rocky Raccoon 100 Trail Run Ultramarathon Video

I'm fully recovered from this brutal race and the bronchitis that ensued, so it's time to post some videos!  This is the compilation from running the Rocky Raccoon 100 miler.  A podcast with a proper race report is coming shortly.  With a 40% DNF rate, this is one of the hardest things I've ever done.

I shut off my camera during the night to save the batteries for the end.  Running 50 miles at night in the woods with a flashlight was CRAZY, especially at near-freezing temperatures.  I can't wait to do this again.

Scott Jurek, Tony Krupicka and other famous racers were there and hugely inspirational.  Results here.
