Greetings,
Happy New Year. A new season begins. Its been quite
a few years since I completed my first triathlon,
Ironman Hawaii, October 1982. This November I
completed Ironman number 35 at Ironman Arizona.
Speaking of anniversaries, this marks the 5th year in
writing this newsletter and to the thousands of you
who receive it, I thank you for your support and your
friendship. We endeavor to continue to earn it in the
coming year. May it be your best year ever.
D.I. Minkoff, M.D.

| Q and A with Dave Scott |
|
From Terry:
What advice do you have for triathletes in their 40's,
food wise, to keep the middle age spread under
control? Something to help metabolism speed up?
From Dave Scott:
If we could just eat the magic bullet and keep
the "spread" under control, I'd be in a different
business!
There are several "things" that you could weave into
your daily routine that will help to maintain lean body
mass and hold the fat increases at bay. Here's a
check list that might give you a few reminders for a
leaner you!

| Mothering and Triathlon |

by Brooke Hanley Davison of Team BodyHealth
This past year found me engaging in what to me was
a new sport, triathlon. Competition is not foreign to
me, yet the sport of triathlon at my ripe young age of 36
was a new endeavor. What started out as first as just
a simple local race in the summer of 2007, has turned
into a passion in my life that is now taking me into the
pro ranks of this rapidly growing sport. I raced the
2008 season as an amateur and maintained an
undefeated season, which both surprised me, and
inspired me, as an athlete, yet even more importantly,
as a mother.

December has brought about more change for
me and my wife (and the little one on the way...). We
left sunny Savannah, GA and arrived to the capitol on
13 December 2008. I will be working at Ft. Myer
(adjacent to Arlington National Cemetery) for my new
posting with the 3rd Infantry Regiment, the oldest unit
in the Army. We are looking forward to living close to
D.C. and all that it has to offer.

By now most of you have started your
preparations for the '09 season are probably crawling
out of your hibernation caves and getting back out on
the roads or back into the gym to begin the base
phase of your training. Taking a break after a long
competition season is a great way to give the body
and mind a break and with the lack of miles
sometimes comes the addition of a few pounds on
the scale.

By Cherie Gruenfeld of Team BodyHealth
I'm an athlete and I live in California. Over the years
I've come to discover that I'm not unlike many other
West Coast athletes: I celebrate New Year's Eve at
9:00 when the ball comes down on Time Square in
New York. Then I quietly head off to bed thinking about
kicking off the new year with a Resolution Ride in the
morning. Sound familiar?
But just because we don't imbibe champagne and
engage in late night revelry, if you're like me, you
spend a few moments indulging yourself by thinking
about the past year and the twelve months ahead. So
let me share a few of my New Year thoughts with you.
- I want to finish every race with a smile like
Chrissie Wellington's. I'll never fly through a race
course like she does, but I'd love to feel the pure joy of
the adventure as she seems to.
- I'd like to run like Craig Alexander. I've
always believed that a great Ironman race is all about
the run. And nobody has ever done it better or smarter
than he did in Kona last October.
- Whatever it is that Hillary Biscay has - I
want some of it. While the rest of us take time off to
recover after a big effort, Hillary simply moves on to the
next race. She continues to thrive doing ten or twelve
Ironman races a year. Most of us consider that to be a
death wish. And this year she got her first Ironman win
in Wisconsin - one week after racing Ironman
Louisville! Whatever it is that keeps her going like that,
I'd like a little of it myself.
Read the rest . . .
