We all find ourselves scouring our collection of iTunes music for training music. Before my last half-marathon I carefully chose just enough music to finish without hearing one song twice. I timed it just so I would make my goal. As the race came to a close (iPods were legal) I picked up the pace as the final song came on. Normally I would have waited much later to pick up the pace for the final sprint – but the song urged me on. And so I only heard the first few seconds of the first song. Mission accomplished.
Finding the right music takes a little time. Our buddy Fitz Cahall over at The Dirtbag Diaries has sweet music on his site and I from time to time grab it and go.
My latest find from KCRW in LA is Loney Dear. The lead is Emil Svanangen an ex-pro cyclist. Spin Magazine says of Loney Dear, “Despair has never sounded so sweet.” But I beg to differ. There have been a few long climbs I have made where I could have used his music. Check them out on their site and their myspace page.

The new Ken Burns film is coming to PBS September 27, 2009
Filmed over the course of more than six years at some of nature’s most spectacular locales — from Acadia to Yosemite, Yellowstone to the Grand Canyon, the Everglades of Florida to the Gates of the Arctic in Alaska — The National Parks: America’s Best Idea is nonetheless a story of people: people from every conceivable background — rich and poor; famous and unknown; soldiers and scientists; natives and newcomers; idealists, artists and entrepreneurs; people who were willing to devote themselves to saving some precious portion of the land they loved, and in doing so reminded their fellow citizens of the full meaning of democracy. It is a story full of struggle and conflict, high ideals and crass opportunism, stirring adventure and enduring inspiration – set against the most breathtaking backdrops imaginable.

This weekend the Brazelton and Omel (feel in from the OC) clans hoped in a borrowed Trail Blazer and headed to Winter Park Resort. Winter Park is one of the coolest mountain towns I’ve ever been to. It’s small, clean, great restaurants and the mountain is unreal.
Below is a 3 minute video that I took on Julie’s brand new Flip camera. I was getting pretty rad!
A tour of the condo we rented.
All in all, a perfect weekend. I’m very much looking forward to more time shredding the mountains of Colorado!

Well now we know why Andy B. moved east.
What does everyone think? Cool? Lame? Check the Web site for Ktrak and leave us a comment with your thoughts.
We will leave it to you for the time being but this little item sure looks strange. It had a strong showing at Euro Bike…can you imagine getting on the chairlift at Mammoth with this? I bet the crew at Heavenly would run you out of the parking lot.

This video is hilarious, yet still interesting. The man is a machine and has had the winner mentality for a long time.

I have been thinking this for years but I am waiting for my body to adapt to my mental ability.
