Ironman Florida 2010 Race Report

So how do you go 9:35 for an Ironman at 56 years old?
Panama City, Florida, as an Ironman venue in early November, is always a crap shoot, tail end of hurricane season and the beginning of Northern cold fronts sweeping out of Canada. This year there was the added risk of Gulf oil detritus. This year was no exception. No hurricane, no oil, just cold- actually the coldest on record-40 degrees at the start and 35 F degrees once we turned inland on the bike through the shadowed pine forests. I HATE, HATE cold weather racing. Not a fan of jumping on a bike in a wet clothes. Triathlon is all about heat, sweat, and dehydration, not hypothermia!!! The warmest part of the race would be the swim with a water temp of 72 and full wet suit.

Except for the Pro's that were too stupid/macho to think they might need more than tri shorts and a tank top (1/2 the Pro field subsequently dropped out), we age groupers took the extra minutes to put on real clothes. I mean would you really head out on a 40 degree training ride in lycra!!! The time "saved" by racing solely in a tank top was more than offset by lost/wasted energy due to the cold. This would be the Ironman of long transitions!!!

Finally, an all in one watch ...

TIMEX GLOBAL TRAINER
Yes, the new Timex Global Trainer, is an ALL IN ONE WATCH. It has GPS which shows distance, speed, pace, altitude, ascend and descent speed, route map, partial times, automatic pause by distance or by time, world time and you can mix and match any combinations of these data in 5 different screen set ups. Compatible with any gadget with ANT+, such SRM power meter. It is the only true water resistant watch of its kind. Your information can be down loaded to your computer in order to analyze and graph it or even watch your course in Google maps and, of course, check your HEART RATE. . .
Ten years ago, TIMEX was the pioneer in this kind of watches, but that model was not very comfortable to use as you had to attach an accessory to your arm (GPS receptor). Considering technology available at that time, it worked fine. However, it is just when the Global Trainer comes to the market that I can really say that this is a training gadget which is comfortable, reliable. I describe it as a gadget because the only function I almost do not work with is as a watch. Isn't this ironic?

From Pam Kallio

I just wanted to take a few minutes and say "thank you" and BodyHealth for sponsoring me as an athlete the last few years. As an athlete I have come to really believe in the product as I use it fairly religiously myself. I say fairly because every once in a while I will get lazy and think I don't need to take it. The result is always some part of my body reminds me that I really do seem to need this, and so I jump back on the "DO NOT FORGET WAGON"!!

As a coach I have also seen the results with my athletes, especially in terms of recovery. I manage to get every one of my athletes hooked on it, and fellow cyclists also. For myself, at age 57 I find that my recovery is not what it was ten years ago - but with MAP I have no problem recovering from everyday Ironman training.

OLD NEWS to some and very GOOD NEWS to all

In March 2004 I wrote an article in Triathlete Magazine about protein recovery.
That article prompted thousands of people to call our office and buy the product. Back then we called the product BioBuilde. That name is no longer used, but has been replaced with the name MAP. Here is that article again for you to see. The product is still delivering what it used to and is the best protein/amino acid supplement by far on the market. If you haven't tried it, you are missing out. It will improve your health and your performance.

Many athletes know that protein is an important element to the endurance athlete's recovery and health in warding off illness. But getting the maximum bang out of your protein source is the trick. A new product on the market suggests it does just that.

As a nutritionally oriented medical doctor, my goal is to restore or maintain optimum health for every person I see using natural remedies. A person in peak health can enjoy the competition of racing and training and can keep their youthful performance far beyond what most believe is possible. Often, I use my own body for testing. At 55, I'm not as fast as I used to be, but I am as intent on improving my performance as ever. I keep looking for things that make me feel better, give me better energy, faster recovery and more strength that I can pass along to others.
