LA Marathon training program: Week 1 1 Sunday January 28th, 2007 Long Run: 16mi @ 8:38 (Planned: 16mi @ 8:55) Weight: 188 Time: 8:00pm Temp: 8f Weather: Light Snow Route: Treadmill Notes: As I was wrote in my last blog, Saturday was perhaps the lowest point I have had since I began running. I think I had hit bottom, It was the end of the two hardest weeks of my program, and despite my optimistic outlook, It caught up to me. But als...
LA Marathon training program: Week 1 1 Saturday January 27th, 2007 EZ Run: 9mi @ 8:52 (Planned: Rest) Weight: 187 Time: 10:00am Temp: 32f Weather: Light Snow Route: Howell to Pinckney Notes: This run was the beginning of my weekend emotional rollercoaster. Unfortunately this was entirely down hill. From the weather forecast it looked like this weekend was going to be pretty much un-runable. Except for a brief w...
Roger Federer's dominance in men's tennis only raises question is he the all time best tennis player ever to have played the game.Certainly one thing he struggles for sure a quality opponent who can challange him in the tennis court.If he demolishes player who are ranked no.2 and no.3 what else his rivals can do. Loads of them compared Borg and laver to Federer and rated higher than him in several websites my simple comment to them all "they have a good sense of Humor, since they compares...
LA Marathon training program: Week 1 1 Friday January 26th, 2007 EZ Run: 5mi @ 8:55 (Planned: 7mi @ 8:55) Weight: 188 Time: 5:35am Temp: 1f Weather: Light Snow Route: Treadmill Notes: Today's run, if not a total failure, was a disappointment. I was supposed to do 7 miles, but I just could not keep running. I have no doubt that I could have finished, I just lost all will to keep going. I'm not sure what my prob...
Watching him in the tennis field is the privilage God has given to our generation. His demolition act against Roddick in Semi-finals of Australian Open '07 was mesmerising. i feel pity for Roddick thou,he is another great player but he himself knows playing against Federar itself is a privilage for him. Tennis fans of previous generation would have been chanting names of Lendil,becker,Mcenro,Sampras Aggasi but this guy seems to be special.Will be his 10 grandslam if he wins this Austr...
Never seen some body piling a pressure on a no.2 seedwho is at the top of the game. Yes I am talking about Australian Open '07 quater finals match between Nadal and Gonzalez. Gonalez played as if he has point to prove Nadal, aggression,attitude,confidence and best of all Hardwork. Doest wanna give Nadalone easy point, ran hard for every single volley,fired all his serves.Indeed Nadal looked in total shock whats going on and he had no answers in the game only to use Injury as excuse in th...
I'm going to see the Wolves play Saturday morning. I'm not sure who they're facing, but I feel confident that they've got a good shot at winning. The coaches are local Air Force volunteers, it seems to be an officer and an NCO assistant. This is probably why their colors are blue shorts and grey t-shirts... They won last weekend 1-0 although the game's duration was shortened due to a scheduling conflict. But I'm going to get to see my boy play again. Can't wait to see his soccer-kic...
I missed out on Andre Agassi’s grand farewell speech at the Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York, as I was in deep slumber in far off India. I would have watched the whole match, hadn’t it be for the time divide. I watched it today in the morning and tears welled out of my eyes. Though tears are hard to come by in this age, but I was crying for Andre. I watched the lad when he started playing tennis as a funky young man with weirdo hairstyle, and cloths, as much as I loved to hate the brash young ...
This is the first TV series disc I've gotten from NetFlix and it was quite the choice, too. I've watched all four episodes on the disc and it has left me wanting more. Not only do you have the whole draw that reality TV seems to have for so many of us, but the actual content really speaks to me. Now, I don't get to go around slugging it out with other guys, but I do have occasion to push myself physically, and that's what this show and mixed martial arts is all about. I had seen most ...
Enoch Powell once observed that all political careers end in failure - a prophecy which he himself went on to fulfil. But the same can not be said about football. Some players do indeed keep gong long after their legs have given out and their best years have passed into memory. That’s why God invented Tottenham Hotspur. But others choose the time of their departure wisely. For example, Tony Adams called it a day with an exemplary performance in Arsenal’s 2002 FA Cup final victory over Chelsea...
Just four teams left now and, following under-par performances by Brazil and Argentina in the quarter-finals, it's an all European final four for the first time since 1982. Let's see how my predictions went: Germany v Argentina, Friday 16:00 Such a shame that the two teams who have played the most attractive football have to meet so early. This would have made a great final. Argentina have so many match-winners that it's hard to bet against them. If Germany are to triumph, Ballack will...
Well, USA is officially out of the World Cup race. They gave it their all and I, for one, am very proud of our team. US soccer has a bright future. In the mean time, I can continue to root for my other "home" team, Italy! I didn't get to see any of the US/Ghana game, but got to see a good part of the Italy/Czech game. Every time Italy scored the whole town shock with air horns and car horns going off all over the place! It would be awesome to be here if/when Italy wins it all! It would be...
Its time to play the game for WWE, Triple H for long been used as heel character as it more suited him, to add More to it I would say the most successful wrestler of to hold the heel tag in WWE history. Most of the characters who started as heel as days went by switched over as face since everybody love to be a public figure. It has been so difficult for a wrestler to adopt to heel character after being the role model for public long time, There are guys who found it very difficult to adap...
Will Great Khali be one of the greatest wrestler. To be frank only time can say the answer. Great Khali's debut performance so far is amazing. The demolition of the Taker & Mesterio speaks for itself nothing need to be explained further. But to be a successful wrestler one should have motivation , self interest, variety & most of all hardworking skill. You would have seen in the past wrestlers like Brock Lesner, The Rock faded away due to lack of motivation & interest in the business. ...
Sorry I've been away so long. Circumstances have conspired against me, and prevented me from being more active here (that's an excuse...I've just been lazy). At least I'm doing better than Greywar...not sure which side of the Earth he fell off of... Anyway, my wife and I went up to Atlantic City this past weekend. It was a first time for both of us. We didn't really get out of the casino/hotel much, so we are both excited about going back. We stayed at the Trump Taj Mahal, and it was ...
