Stinson Beach Trail Run

Monday, November 17th, 2008

Over the weekend, I participated in my first Pacific Coast Trail Runs event.  I did the Stinson Beach 12k which turned out to be a more difficult event than I expected.  The trail has a pretty aggressive elevation gain with just about all of the gain at the start of the trail.  Starting from Stinson [...]


2008 Treasure Island Olympic Triathlon

Sunday, November 9th, 2008

A couple months ago I heard about the San Francisco Triathlon on Treasure Island.  At the time, I knew there was a sprint and an Olympic distance, but relegated myself to the sprint distance. However, after the last triathlon I did, I just decided to try for the Olympic distance.  Last year, in 2007, I [...]


2008 Fight Gone Bad

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

On Saturday, my local CrossFit affiliate had our Fight Gone Bad day. This was my first official FGB, and having only done it one other time, I decided to forgo the official men’s weight, and do the intermediate weight (which also happened to be the women’s weight). I did the exercises in the following order [...]


The Quicksilver Challenge 5k / 10k / Half-Marathon

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

Over the weekend, I did my second 10k in 3 weeks. A running club in San Jose holds an annual trail running event with different distances. I chose to do the 10k distance as that is right now the longest distance I’m comfortable running.
The course was located in the hills south west of San Jose [...]


15th Annual Tri For Real

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

This morning I did my second triathlon of 2008. It was the 15th Annual Tri For Real.  This is the triathlon which the Tri for Fun series is supposed to prepare you for.  The race was good, and I felt decently comfortable for the swim and bike.  As usual, the bike seemed to be [...]


Palo Alto Moonlight 10k

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Tonight I completed my first competitive 10k.  Two weeks ago, I did the Nike+ Human Race, though I don’t really consider that in the same level, since it was by my self and there weren’t others to get the same competitive drive.
So I did the Palo Alto Online Moonlight run in 46 minutes, 29 seconds.  [...]


21st Annual Tri For Fun #3

Saturday, August 16th, 2008

This morning I did my first triathlon of 2008.  It was the 21st Annual Tri For Fun #3, which is prep race for the 21st Annual Tri For Real.  The race was good, and I felt pretty comfortable the whole time.  So I just wanted to post my splits that I took on my watch [...]


Kings vs. Spurs

Friday, April 21st, 2006

Go Kings! We’re about to take the Spurs. I’m not going to say how many games it’ll be in, but just that we’re going to win.
One thing I do want to see, is for the Lakers and Clippers to win in the first round. How sick would it be to watch that [...]


Kings Game 6

Saturday, December 31st, 2005

Well, for the third year in a row, I got tickets to see them in the playoffs. And this is the second year I’ve seen a game six. With the Kings’ win today, I have never… maybe I should fly to Minnesota for Wednesday… Anyways, here are pictures from the game.


Kings vs. Sonics - Game 3, Round 1

Saturday, April 30th, 2005

Last night, I was fortunate enough to once again get playoff tickets to see the Kings. This continues a trend that I started in High School, going to at least one game of the Kings’ in the playoffs. Last night, the Kings played the Sonics, and began their home stay by remembering how [...]
