Chuckie V: Fun with Numbers
02/15/08: Today I played a little game on the bike by myself. It went like this: I tried to hold 400 watts for as long as I could. The rules set forth by my self-appointed one-man committee clearly stated I was to stop the instant I could no longer hold or (Read More)

Chuckie V: Going Postal on One of Those Days
02/12/08: Yesterday was "one of those days" for me. Alas, my whole life seems to be filled with a nonstop series of "one of those days"...it's been one of those lifes. About the only time I can recall not having one of those days is when I've (Read More)

Chuckie V: A Grain in the Ass
02/07/08: Here are a few books on nutrition you should read...

Good Calories, Bad Calories by Gary Taubes. (This is (Read More)

Chuckie V: The Nose Knows
01/29/08: There is a lot of strange terminology and abbreviations in triathlon and exercise science and for the neophyte it might all be a bit confusing. Don't worry, you are not alone! Hell, I've been involved in endurance sports for more than two and a half (Read More)

Chuckie V: The Time Being - New Year, Same Old Me
12/30/07: Arbitrary things like dates in the calendar or time on the wrinkled face of a clock have never meant much to me, except when I'm running late. Of course, it's hard to run late when you no longer run but that's not my point. My point is that time, or (Read More)

My name is Chuckie V and I approve this message. (Read More)

Chuckie V: Schooling Non-Fish
12/13/07: Swimming is a tough sport to master. Unless you're Australian. If you're like me, you're probably not an Aussie and swimming doesn't come natural to you. As it is, 90% of those from the land down under reside within a seashell's throw of water, so (Read More)

Chuckie V: Training Talk
12/10/07: Someone once told me that NASA spent millions upon millions in effort to develop a pen that would work in space. It not only needed to be able to work in zero gravity, but also be operable upside down and have ink that wouldn't freeze or dry out in (Read More)

Chuckie V: Gyms, Germs, Gents & Graphicness
12/04/07: I started lifting weights again this week and almost straight away I could feel a substantial increase in a number of things, most of all just how crappy I felt.

The thing is, I'm one of those oddball triathletes who actually enjoys the gym, (Read More)

Chuckie V: Of Meat and Milk
11/30/07: I have known a number of vegetarians over the years, all of whom are still alive. I am not one myself and yet I too am still alive. (In jive jargon: I'm "kicking it live".) I've examined tons of tomes on this subject and came to the personal verdict (Read More)
