@OutOfCycling I'm betting Johan Vansummeren is really impressed

@Pflax1 Good god... Feedback racks for ~$10, box of carbon wheels bidding starting at $40, and more tools than the eye can see.

Today I'm reminded of a classic post on Cross Twitter: "Who is your least favorite cyclocross racer and why is it Eli Iserbyt?"

[Max Schmarzo (sbs) @strong_science]

If you are strength coach and you made someone so sore that it gets in the way of their skills training…. You absolutely messed up. If think that’s soft, I think you don’t understand the purpose of the weight room in terms of training athletes

@philgaimon Don't eat that dog. Don't eat 'em. No matter how "en vogue" it might be right now try to refrain.

[Ian Murray @TriCoachIan]

@SportsOrla Yes! Perfectly wild!!!

@LA28 @ApoloOhno @USSpeedskating @TeamUSA @Olympics Hold up. Mr Ohno (Mr Anton Ohno?) is a legit triathlon and had a brilliant time at Ironman Hawaii 2015. I think even he would take on look at the LA28 triathlon course in Long Beach and say... "Nah, this needs a hillier bike"

Shout out to @ilona_maher and the entire USA Rugby squad for your excellence in every way. Thanks for representing women perfectly and USA beautifully.

[Ian Murray @TriCoachIan]

@peacock embarassed for you, your coverage of @BattenHaley Just to bring you up to speed it's dramatic when a US athelte is in the hunt, flats, recovers and even the comentators know it saying "we'll have to see what happens with Haley" - yeah, it would have been nice to see

[Ian Murray @TriCoachIan]

@faustocoppi60 That is a design masterpiece compared to our USA kit - we might win by simply putting the competition to sleep

@babakazad Back in '88 I was living in Hood River & doing contract work for Nike in Portland. We showed up to a PM, mid week soccer game (a perfect field on campus), one of the dudes I was with was wearing a shoe made by Adidas. Three employees were so pissed it almost came to blows.

[Ian Murray @TriCoachIan]

@jasonpedersen That's a bold move... almost as bold as this burst out of T2 in Monterrey 2015

[Ian Murray @TriCoachIan]

@jasonpedersen No doubt... enjoy it!

[Ian Murray @TriCoachIan]

Should be compared with studies that suggest a short life for those who sleep poorly or work the graveyard shift

What's the best time of day to exercise for reducing disease risk?

This study with obese participants suggests the evening (6pm-12am).

Cool example of what's possible to learn from wearables... data from ~30,000 people over ~ 8 years👇
