Palo, you and I aren't very different. That's the funniest part about all this. You think, probably often, that you are right about a lot of things. And, from what I gather, you like to take people down a peg. How am I different from you in…

That's what's been going through my head the past few hours. I got frustrated, ranted, and in a moment of weakness posted the thing. Still, you never get angry?(Quote)
You realize asking me this defeats the entire purpose of what I wrote, ri…

Well, other than making what seems to me as being a snide comment about the "logic" of it, what do you have to say against it? Or, as I asked, do you only care about the obvious ones?
Or, more importantly, Where do you want the ma…

He is the fastest American marathoner, and the stigma is about being " coached by God". Nobody really knows how that worked and made fun of him for it. Additionally: the title of the thread is grossly misleading. No one was holding…
I'm liking this new trend of dramatizing real life events. The big short, moneyball, and another wall-street bailout movie come to mind- is The Program like this?
Why do triathletes have to explain their sponsorship choices to anyone?
Would there be this same level of scrutiny of roka Athletes if roka wetsuits were made in sweatshops? Or if trek was widely know to have a culture of sexual harassment against…

First off, let's have cities put together bids for hosting the National tri meet. thing. race. whatever. Okay, then, let's switch it up, and choose cities that are no…

Well.... It's basically the same thing. You just get screwed over 30 years with an annuity. Better actually, to take the lump sum. Reason: time value of money, inflation

FOR the record: Milwaukee is good but not great.
And what's wrong with going to Omaha? Got me some damn fine steaks from those Wonderful bastards on numerous occasions. Sounds to me that someone needs to take a nap to settle down.

Let's compare it this way: ( ironman's races + ironman's years of operation ) vs. ( rev3's races + years of operation ). Rev3 has been around since 2008, ironman, since 1990. A better word to use would've been "young" but this was …

Wow. Really? There's a TRS bandwagon that hates everything challenge and zibi? When did I miss this? I would have loved to have jumped on that sucker! I've never done a challenge race but fuck those guys!
Really, though? Where the hell are …
Buy TRS, make webstey the queen of all technology. That, or a leveraged buyout of ironman and demote the current CEO to being my secretary or something
Look, all trolling aside, Maffetone's approach is just the same as the polarized training (which you support, right actual palo?). Phil's argument is that people don't do enough base to begin with and that intensity is way overrated.
