Hello my loves, I’ve been away for a long time. Powerman Malaysia was done and dusted last Sunday with a mighty respectable (but rather unsatisfying) time of 4:42 and a PB of 55 minutes for the first 11k run. So now that I’m no longer facing the impending doom and gloom of a big race ...

Now, I don’t usually love product pimping on blogs but after reading this post in Aggie’s Kitchen about using butternut squash soup in a dish calling for butternut squash, I couldn’t help but think…damn, GENIUS! You see, your truly loves her squashes and pumpkins but won’t eat them unless she prepares them herself. Unfortunately, after ...

If last night’s post was a bit strange, excuse it, as I was typing it, I was half falling asleep and hallucinating. I seem to be very good at the latter. Anyway, I woke up this morning feeling the effects of dehydrating myself for 7 days, being exposed to heat, cold and possibly sniffly kids ...

Tomorrow, I arrive at the airport at 7 a.m. and get my butt to East Timor for the biggest adventure of 2010. But I’m madly packing right now so I shall put up links. Gone Cyclin’s Facebook and Twitter hasn’t much to read yet, in part because we’re all stupid busy getting ready, but I ...

So, I know I’ve been gone a long time. Its been an uninspiring, stressful and not so fun few months sprinkled with great moments that are matched by horrid moments. But, when all’s said and done, one does need to be open to the Universe sending crap your way when it does. Because this is ...

Or maybe stumbling blocks in life: 1. Either denying the existence of negative emotions in my life or when they’re too ...

Its sunny outside and the pool calls. There are drills to do and then a friend to meet. I’ve not been good the last few weeks, there’s an increase ambivalence that I still want to write or shoot or anything. I’m reaching my year when I plan to race as seriously as I can but ...

Someone put me onto Gui Boratto. I love the music, really. It’s just my kind of thing. Also, I’ve more or less lost the plot entirely for everything so far. Might have something to do with the respiratory infection I’m having again, it really takes a lot out of me even if I won’t admit ...

Turns out, its not just my glasses, the power in my contact lenses are far too low. The following photos are what can happen when you look through the camera viewfinder and everything’s bluurr. Jesus. Now I need to go ask the optician if he will change 3 months of contact lenses to a new ...

Some idiot on Facebook wrote a note about squashing cyclists on the roads like ants and then got miffed that someone complained about him to the police. Yeah, dude, I don’t know about you but when someone writes the kind of content of your first note with that sort of attitude that you are allowed ...
