I was told I had a 92 degree temp when I had to "check in" to work one day and it was like "oh, you're under 98.6, you're all clear" The accuracy of temporal/infrared Temps is very very user dependant and very inaccurate as well. If you have a fever, you'd be flush, sweaty, etc, but basic physical appearance and physical exams are apparently a thing of the past.

I'm guessing he was after your 2nd wife...

We can make it a 3 way..... ??

Cmon NS, come down and train with me ? There are some intense and insane athletes, def not the way I'll ever be wired, it's certainly impressive to see, but man!!! I had bike splits of 5 miles yesterday of 16 min or so and I was still being passed easily!

I was happy to see hockey the other night, but when I watched it, I wasn't all that excited, I can't put my finger on it, but it just didn't feel like playoff hockey to me.

I just finished my first ever Triathalon yesterday, it was a sprint Triathalon, so pretty short overall. What a unique experience, very intimidating also. I finished in 1:17 so fairly middle of the pack which is fine with me, I did beat my buddy by 13 minutes, so he owes me a calzone and a beer ?? It's funny, yesterday there were so many people in 10k dollar bikes that I passed and at the end a guy on a 300$ diamondback passed me lol.

I'm probably out this year, not focusing much on sports so much these days

Venice was cool for a day or 2, but it didn't quite do it for me the way I thought it would. I found the Almafi coast overall to be much more spectacular

Ah yes the ring of Kerry and the wild Atlantic way were amazing!

We simply can't cure viruses, we haven't been able to for hundreds of years and we aren't going to anytime soon (except hepatitis C) we can get to treatments to help them lay dormant or to allow timing out of the virus so it can't replicate properly. Maybe we can figure out some of the miraculous breakthroughs that cure Hep C and implement that in research going forward; it's also rather sad, but a lot of "studies" being put forth are pure junk and speculation and being touted as actual science. Mostly because we have a need to have something new in our faces every 15 seconds.

That's not the answer from an Ironman ??

Cycling is great, I look forward to the days where I don't have a heavy training load, cycling for pleasure or just sightseeing is great too. But also ripping down a hill at 50mph is also a Blast!!! Until I realize I have to go back up it.

And both Swedish and German Babes❤️❤️

Wishing I was German or Swedish right now

@New Scotland (NS) Istanbul and turkey in general are amazing. One of my favorite major cities I've ever been. Cappadocia turkey was amazing too!

Let me pull down my pants..... And you'll get one small nugget ???

I feel the same way, and I can't wait for the world to open up again, I'm itching for an international trip!

It's so hard to nail down which are my favorite places, I also don't wanna hijack this thread ???

These things are all true, it's certainly not easier, and it does require effort. I think the rub is that in America, sadly, effort is hard to come by, especially as of late..... I mean this on a whole, not in micro segments of populations. My takes on this are derived from seeing a ton of the world, we certainly have it very very good here in this country, almost too good some days. We are seen in a certain light here when talking to locals of Asia, Europe, etc; we give off this vibe of overweight, loud, and willing to share our feelings easier than a lot of other cultures, we have a specific way of dress and sadly we love our fast food, even in other countries, this confirmed by the lines of Americans I see at burger King and KFC in capital cities;These are all convos that I've had with people over the years. Even when it comes to this whole Covid thing, whether you agree or not agree the effort levels are varying so much. We all know my stance on this isn't super popular, but it's not hard to put some masks in my car and use hand sanitizer, I mean honestly lol.

They make the dual sided pedals now, and speed plays, clipping in is a skill all in itself and you need to be initiated by falling at a stop light at least once ??, if you're just out for fun, clip in aren't necessary, but to push the pace at all, those are a solid purchase. On a side note, my triathlon coach is letting me trial an aero bike he had laying around, a Specialized Shiv, it's carbon which is super nice and the position the aero bike puts you in, it's just magic. If I like it, he'll give it to me for next to nothing and just let me pay in small increments over the next 2 years. I just took it out on my normal 30 mile route and I was flying! I was averaging 18mph on a course that I usually am around 15.5-16mph. The temptation is too great lol

Soon you'll be at 30 no problem.... Another small tip, pedal like you're feet are in a shoebox, you'll engage the hamstrings more (if you're in clip in pedals) and take some of the brunt off the quads ?

My damn achilles is killing me, I spent time in the sauna, foam rolled it, ice, elevate, etc... I only did a 3 mile run today and that was enough to make it come back with the a vengeance

Actually vinnys had some pretty solid wings, the Cajun, hot, BBQ and mix all 3 flavors into one wing. They used to have wing night on Mondays I think, but I'm sure those days of super cheap wings are long gone.

Dude, I'm living on GUs, Chews, etc for glycogen storage at this point lol. I've squeak in some pull ups/push ups, but I think it's a one or the other thing for me right now. My body still is in shock from the training, since at 35 years old I decided out of the blue to do one of the hardest events out there. That's ADHD for ya ???
