Waking up

Baked Spaghetti

With 1/2 Ironman training starting up again and 2 workouts a day becoming more of a common theme, batch cooking is more practical than cooking something different every night.

Ate some before taking a pic. Baked Spaghetti 1/2t salt  6oz...

Foam roller not good enough?

If you've bought a foam roller, you probably noticed that it doesn't exactly keep it's shape anymore. You can try to even it out by using other parts but that's a pain. Money doesn't grow on trees at my house so buying another wasn't an option. So, I thought, why not use a PVC pipe.  I found this scrap piece for around $5.  The diameters a little smaller but it gets the job done.  At first it's a little...

Short Trip Back Home

So after many months, I finally went back home for the new year.  Flying in between Maui and the Big Island. Clouds looked weird.  Mauna Kea. Still a little bit of snow left.  Fireworks It was this cold most of the time.  Overall, it was a nice trip. Mornings were sunny followed by dark gloominess till the next day. I was pretty surprised that it didn't rain. After a two days I was glad to be heading back...
