    The Off Season: The Second Arrow

    The Off Season: The Second Arrow

    There is a Buddhist parable that explains suffering something like this... The Buddha once asked a student, “If a person is struck by an arrow, is it painful?” The student replied, “It is.” The Buddha then asked, “If the person is struck by a second arrow, is that even more painful?” The student replied again, “It is.” The Buddha then explained, “In life, we cannot always control the first arrow. However, the second arrow is our reaction to the first. And with this second arr

    What's on Your Trainer Playlist 2

    When the basement is cold and dark, music can be the thing that helps you get through the intervals or longer steady state rides. When you have the right track, there is no better feeling than getting on top of that gear and pedaling away. I use Amazon Prime Music for my library after years of having a million songs on iTunes. I can find almost anything on Amazon Music, and the cost is amazingly low when I consider that I used to pay $14 a CD to get tracks back in the day. HE

    The Off Season: More on Getting Things Done

    The Off Season: More on Getting Things Done

    Last post, I wrote about getting disciplined and how to keep from floundering when motivation fails. The average person has a lot on their plates, and when they fail to meet their training goals it causes stress. Today we explore some other ways that we can tackle winter training and get things done when motivation is not doing the trick. Here are some habits to start (or at least try out) and then we will explore a few things about motivation. You might remember that i warn

    The Off Season: Part 4, The Power of Discipline and Habits

    Like an archer an arrow, the wise man steadies his trembling mind, a fickle and restless weapon. -The Buddha I think that I always feel a little bleak in February and March. The bliss of the holidays starts to wear off, and we continue on into the rest of winter. It's dark, it's cold, the days are short, and the thought of riding the trainer in the basement is...meh. We are deep into winter here, and it looks like there are no clear roads or outside rides in sight. And yet,

    The Off Season: Part 3, Eliminating Time Wasters

    After tidying up and getting out of the rut produced by being surrounded by clutter, it was time to get on with this new free space and sense of self that I had created. The burden of all that junk was really a much bigger weight than I had perceived. I was now poised to make sure that I built upon that positive push I had created. One thing I have always struggled with is productivity. Don’t get me wrong, I am good at work and such, but I could use a little bump when it come
    UCI Cyclocross Worlds: 3 Lessons from the Big Guys

    UCI Cyclocross Worlds: 3 Lessons from the Big Guys

    What a great race in Bogense today. I enjoyed watching the titans of cyclocross duke it out at the front and also tracking US favorites like Cody Kaiser and Anthony Clark as they fought for respectability and places within the top 40 or 50. Four lessons were screaming out to me as I watched and learned. I was not surprised in any way by the outcome 1. Technical skill is everything (when all else is equal). The off-camber section on this course was a bear, and Mathieu Van der

    The Off Season: Part 2b, Problems Solved by Owning Less

    I am working on the follow up posts on the Off Season series, and I stumbled across this video by Joshua Becker today. You will have to take my word for it that I just stumbled upon it in my YouTube feed and that I did not use it as the source material for my post the other day. Scout's honor. That said, it really sums up a lot of the feeling that I had when I wrote the post about letting go and owning less. I hope you enjoy it. Also, make sure to reach out if you have any i
