Almost always kite flying weather where we live. Right by the river by a park. No large trees and far away from power lines. Today was windy as usual. On New Year’s Day while I was resting my weary legs, my father in law made a kite for our nephew. My wife painted the octopus […]

Asics TJG811 New Shoes
Thought I’d better do the right thing to prevent injury and get some proper shoes for this Tokyo Marathon. The Nikes I use are old and have done too much walking, so probably not worn in properly for running. They are very comfortable though. I went to Sports Autority and checked out all the asics […]

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009
Still 9 hours of 2008 to go yet I haven’t gone for my last ride. Trying to psyche myself up to get out the door at 3pm but it’s a bit windy out and I’m still a bit tired form last night’s sprint training. I also want to run 20km tomorrow morning to my in-laws […]
Noda Night Training 2008 12 30
Final training for the year. Not too cold and I was probably over dressed. Long sleeved lycra shirt, summer cycling shirt, winter jersey, long cycling pants, skull cap and a windbreaker. 3 from Semas, 3 from Apex. I managed to get 2 2nds and finished off the night with a win on the final sprint. […]
My hemangioma (less) venous malformation tongue
My website page about my tongue (read it first) gets more hits from people than any other page I have made on the internet. It seems that the problem I have is common and advice is limited. Some people may like to contact me and ask questions about it. Therefore I decided to make this […]
Monday Jogging
Once the cold wind died down today I did the same jog as the other day across the bridge and around the golf course. Had to race back home to the toilet though. I won by a second. Trots came 2nd. Certainly good motivation to pick the pace up a bit and introduce some yoga […]
Cyclical Ketogenic Diet
Was hard to get out of bed, but I’d gotten all my stuff ready so was easy to get out the door and onto the freezing cycling path that is Edogawa. I was already running late so I spun fast and got there in time and well warmed up. (Nagareyama Bridge). We split into groups […]
Japanese Practice
Recently been using mixi more and need to brush up on my crappy Japanese skills. 昨日、クリスマスだったということで、思わず食べ過ぎてしまった人は多いのではないでしょうか？ 僕もそのうちの一人です！！ お腹が張って胃が痛くなるまで食べてしまいました。 アルコールも入ったため、そのまま寝てしまい、後は恐怖の体重増加へと一直線(汗)。。。 そのため、今日は昨日の食べ過ぎによる体重増を防ぐために、近所のゴルフ場にジョギングへ(今日は暖ジョギング日和だし)。 ５キロばかり走りましたが、これも昨日の食べすぎに対しては焼け石に水！？ 今日からご飯の量を減らさなくては！！ あっ、でも後１週間後にはお正月のおせち料理が。。。。意志薄弱な僕です。。。 2008年の二月大樹は９５ｋｇだった。 今朝８５ｋｇ。先月８３ｋｇ。 あと１０ｋｇ。
Lance Armstrong Anna Hansen
It’s not about the bike it’s about the bonk. Just found out that Lance Armstrong is expecting his fourth child, and first with girlfriend Anna Hansen. Lance said he was “thrilled” to confirm the baby news, which has left the couple’s families feeling ”ecstatic and grateful.” “We are very much looking forward to what 2009 brings on […]
