Multisport Charleston: March 2012

http://multisportcharleston.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

Blogging the local scene for the multisport enthusiast. Thursday, March 29, 2012. The Problem with USA Cycling. I just completed a survey for USA Cycling. The survey was sent to me because I haven't renewed my membership in two years. I was more than happy to give them my reasoning because I'd love to see changes in the sport of cycling - specifically racing, not recreational weekend cycling. That's ridiculous. What if there was only one 5k road race per year? Wouldn't that grow the sport? And when you a...

Multisport Charleston: Parris Island Recap

http://multisportcharleston.blogspot.com/2012/03/parris-island-recap.html

Blogging the local scene for the multisport enthusiast. Monday, March 19, 2012. Setup has done a wonderful job of ensuring people submit the correct swim time. When you register there is a lot of instruction for how to enter your swim time. You also get an email prior to the race stating your swim time and asking if you sure about it. They make it hard to be wrong. A fellow race participant said that things had gotten screwed up and they were letting people go whenever. What? 500 mtr swim 9:20 9:19.

Multisport Charleston: March 2011

http://multisportcharleston.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Blogging the local scene for the multisport enthusiast. Thursday, March 31, 2011. There was a time in my life (during college and just after) that I read veraciously. I was an English major and read everything ever assigned to me, and then some. Now, all I read are triathlon/running magazines and cycling books. I don't know what that says about me, but it is what it is. From Lance to Landis. Teach your kid to ride a bike. Inside the Postal Bus. The Death of Marco Pantani. The Tour de France Quiz Book.

Multisport Charleston: Unauthorized Assistance?

http://multisportcharleston.blogspot.com/2012/11/unauthorized-assistance.html

Blogging the local scene for the multisport enthusiast. Sunday, November 18, 2012. I recently read an article that highlighted the USAT’s “Unauthorized Assistance” rule. It’s a common sense rule, but one that I’ve unknowingly broken several times. Here is the rule:. Article 3.4d. Unauthorized Assistance. So, if I pass someone who is clearly hurting, and maybe needs fuel or water, technically, I shouldn’t give that person some of my water? Even if they aren’t hurting, who cares? Bike Rumor RSS Feed. Escap...

Multisport Charleston: July 2011

http://multisportcharleston.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html

Blogging the local scene for the multisport enthusiast. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. The Race Day Checklist. In general, triathletes tend to be very organized. Prior to a race, we go over our checklist of the gear we need to take. We have a plan for how our gear will be laid out in the transition area. And, over time, we perfect the process of moving in and out that transition area in the least amount of time. So I won't offer the perfect checklist here, but I will offer up the Top 10 most common items left b...
