Tight as a Tiger

Tonight’s duathlon was hard.

I think out of all the Monday night duathlons, this was the hardest for me. My hamstrings were tight like a tiger. Really threw off my stride. Then on the bike I couldn’t keep up my power. I’d get it up to speed and then couldn’t hold it.

Finished in 53 min. when I usally come in around 48-49 min.

Oh well. It is still fun to come out and see everyone. I even got to school someone on how to adjust their rear derailleur.

Time to hit the weights and build up my strength for the rest of the season.

Introducing the Medal Marquee

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

medal_marqueeIt finially happens. You medal in your race and all the hard work over the past months has paid off. You proudly accept your medal at the post race ceremony and maybe even wear it during the drive home.

Once you get home what do you do with it? Hang it on a hook of some sort, keep it on a coffee table as a conversation piece (why not, at the cost to enter a race now days, you earned it) or throw it in a drawer, never to be seen again.

You can customize the colour of the case or add a graphic background to compliment the medal.

Now you can make your medal more that just a medal. Make it your marquee.

More photos to come.
