  • Leading the young to fitness
    Thursday, December 22, 2005 - 16:40
    This past Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association reported that approximately one third of US teens could not pass a treadmill fitness test. The study suggests that this population may be at a higher risk for heart disease later in life. There are loads of studies demonstrating...

  • On the Christmas list
    Monday, December 19, 2005 - 16:38
    Why is it that so many hotel fitness rooms do not have pedal straps for their bikes? It's not so bad with a recumbent, but for an upright it makes the workout pretty annoying. Maybe all those missing pedal straps are having a party somewhere...Even at the big health clubs, members often must...

  • Another great workout on the road
    Saturday, December 17, 2005 - 09:59
    In case you were wondering, we do practice what we preach. I just returned from a fabulous workout at the Holmes Place Athletic Club in Chicago. A couple thousand yard swim in a true lap pool and a quick free-weight strength session is a perfect start to my Saturday morning. Access to this...

  • That is a short runway!
    Friday, December 16, 2005 - 21:39
    Fortunately, my flight into Chicago's Midway airport was uneventful last night. I wasn't worried. But I did pay attention, for the first time, to the length of our landing strip. The recent Southwest jet overshooting the runway "incident" was on my mind, so I stared out the window while we...

  • Christmas in Southern California
    Wednesday, December 14, 2005 - 11:08
    My wife and I moved out to San Diego 4 years ago and we love, love, love living here 51 weeks out of the year. But during that 7 day period from Dec. 25 through Jan. 1, I think I'm realizing that I rather be somewhere else. As someone who grew up celebrating the Christmas and New Year holidays in...

  • Drugs
    Monday, December 12, 2005 - 10:56
    We can all agree that drugs will always be a part of sports, right? No matter what rules are in place, someone in the peloton will always try to get away with taking the latest form of EPO, some football players will continue to beef up their bodies with steroids, and some Olympic athletes will...

  • Do not do this!
    Saturday, December 10, 2005 - 19:55
    We come into contact with hudreds, well probably thousands of people who are active, athletic, slim and trim. Some are marathoners, some are ironmen/women, some are century-ride cyclists, others are long distance swimmers. In addition to their love of long distance sports, many of these high...

  • What, no launch party?!
    Thursday, December 8, 2005 - 13:09
    As I sit here typing with bed head and bags under my eyes big enough to check on a plane, our website finally has been squeezed out of its cyberspace womb. If we were still in the roaring 90's, I'm sure our company would already have a 9-figure monetary value, an IPO scheduled, and a celebrity...

  • Bye Bye Smokers
    Thursday, December 8, 2005 - 00:59
    Ok, so my title may be somewhat harsh, but I must admit, whenever I learn of a city banning smoking in restaurants, at beaches, and in the bars, it puts a smile on my face. Chicago is currently in a power struggle over pursed lip puffing. New York City made the headlines last year after enacting...
