it must be college season...

...cuz my hit count is off the charts... hundreds of daily opportunities to have new readers ask...
why is this guy on ultimatetalk.com...

well... the reason... is, i don't know.

but if you read the archives, you'll find nearly 10% of my content deals with ultimate.
this is somewhat different than jim parinella's blog.
where you can go to find out exactly how wrong i am about my actual ultimate content percentage.

but over the next month or two, i'll be sporadically coaching ultimate (sporadically, because, we'll practice no more than twice per week, and i have no problem cancelling practice when it snows. and snow it does, and frequently).

speaking of snow, a couple of awesome ski workouts this morning...
this am, a 5.5 km timetrial, 16 minutes... fastest ever measured workout, and i went relatively easy. the success came from the conditions, which were RIPPING fast, and the fact that my technique has improved enough that i'm able finally to go relatively fast on the flats and gentle downhills. on these terrains, it's necessary to accelerate, and it's been hard to keep the technique together... then another 10km at an easy pace...

then i went home, played guitar for an hour, read about the 10th mountain division, ate, ate more... did some laundry...

and went for another 18km ski. interestingly to me, at least, it had snowed about 2 inches... much, much slower... easy, sustained pace...

that's all
