Strasser sets two RAAM records with solo win

Christoph Strasser won the men’s individual category in the Race Across American Wednesday in Annapolis, Maryland. Strasser, now a two-time winner, finished in record time, logging an unofficial result of 7 days, 22 hours, and 11 minutes, with an overall average speed of 15.56 mph.

Strasser’s record ride bested the 15.4-mph speed mark set by Pete Penseyes in 1986 and Rob Kish’s record time of 8 days, 3 hours (set on a different course).

Newbee strugling with cycling

Hi everyone,

So I'm pretty new to this whole tri scene. I started with a 3:9:3 a year ago, and completed a HalfIM in December 2012 which I absolutely loved!

My strength is swimming, and through training my running (which I used to despise) has come along leaps and bounds (literally!) and it's now one of my most loved parts of training. My cycling however, is terrible!!!

Armstrong Is Said to Weigh Admitting Drug Use

Since this horse hasn't been beat enough...yet. I find it interesting that, if this account is correct, that Armstrong is considering "coming clean", so to speak, not out of any sense of altruism, guilt, shame, or responsibility, but to further his own personal interests which are, at the moment, thwarted.

Again? USADA Charges Armstrong with Doping

I am hardly a huge fan of LA, but how many times does this have to happen before it is finally put to an end? Good grief Charlie Brown!

AUSTIN, Texas - The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency is bringing doping charges against seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, threatening to strip his victories in the storied cycling race.
