Running in NYC

Monday, March 29th, 2010

Three days to lift off. Three months in the USA. Starting and ending in NYC. This past weekend on the Garmin West Coast Warm Water Weekend I got to meet Kevin Flanagan, the author of the Xterra Grabouw report I posted. What a legendary character. Seems all his senses are switched on and intune.

Garmin West Coast Warm Water Weekend

Friday, March 26th, 2010

My weekend plans:

Should be great fun: The future of multisport I reckon. Nature, health, family, good eating, great brands, fitness, awareness…

Cup overflowing

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Precariously dangling between too much going down and semi control – that’s been the feel over the past three weeks. Much like the 2nd Giro Stage yesterday I guess.
