  • Environmental effects on target heart rate

    Things like heat, humidity, and anxiety elevate the heart rate, but what does that mean in terms of target heart rate?   e.g. I'm calm and collected while training solo in Colorado, and then my agoraphobia kicks in at Kona.  Will/should my race paces be slower than my training paces?   Thanks, Thomas

  • Kona 08 M55-59 race report

  • Kona condo reservation available for race week 2008

    Long story short,  I have a reservation for a condo in Kona during race week (8 nights) that I will not be using this year.   If I transfer the reservation to someone else, then I get most of my deposit back.  If I don't transfer it and just cancel it, then I get less of my deposit back. This is located on Alii Drive at a condominium building ...
