Post – Long Ride Reflection Today I rode 4-1/2 hr. I was planning for 6 hr but my Pastor needed help so I decided to cut it. Then later did I found out he didn’t need my help at all. That’s ok. By the third hour, my legs were toasting. The coach suggested a 4-1/2 hr ride. Tomorrow I got a 2 -/2 hr run. So I figure I just follow the plan. I always thought I reflect on a long ride...
Booyah…. Today I had two interviews. One with an employment agency and second one with Ecostrat The interview with Ecostrat went realy well. The owner looked at my resume and told me straight up, ‘Cliff I don’t think this position is for you.’ I have been looking for a marketing position and so I am selling myself as a business person. Instead he is looking for an IT guy...
A comparison of fitness and health Job hunting is in full swing. The interview I had on last Tues (my b-day), they hired someone with more industry experience…(nuts). What can you do except get back on the saddle. Today I met with an employment agency. I have two more appointment with different agencies. One tomorrow and one Thrusday. I don’t get much result from them but hey, at...

Just because I feel like it.. Today the weather was nice and sunny. Not a cloud in sight. 20* C (68*F) is perfect temperature. Today is the first day I start riding out with my bikey. I rode slow to keep my heart rate down. It ain’t working. My zone 1 is less than 142 and I am suppose to be riding in Z1 most of the time. It is very hard even to keep my heart rate at 145. I forgot the...
There is no I in Ironman. Quick note: April 17 was my B-day. 27! I also had a great interview on that day. I met with the Head Hunter and the Senior VP. We chatted up about business. We talked about strategies and internet marketing. I am always gung ho talking with people that have a vision and passion. I train solo and I race solo. But I am never alone. It doesn’t matter if you are doing...
Tri talk I am 80% recover from my stomach flu. Whenever I eat anything unhealthy, the stomach will complain. At least it will keep me in my diet. Training is slowly ramping up. Following the plan that my coach gave me, this week I am only doing 7 hours. This should be no problem considering that I am unemploy (I just got an interview tomorrow..so that should be good). Going to Hong Kong for four...
Stomach Flu Last Friday, I came back home and got a bad case of the stomach flu. So this week is pretty much recovering from that. Had a lot of chicken noodle soup and apples. Those seem to be the only thing that my stomach can handle. I haven’t train much since I got back. With the stomach flu, I don’t want to upset my stomach anymore than I should. Today I got on and did an hour on...
The guarantees in life.. I am staying in Hong Kong for a few more days. For the past few weeks since I have been here, there was a lot of discovering. Discovering the past. This is a city where I was born. I immigrated to Canada when I was 8. Despite the short time growing up here, the culture felt very like home. Discovering the present. I met my relatives old and new. The oldest cousin I...
