I sort of like the current title, but, I will go with the following instead (apologies to Hank):

"The thread where Spring has sprung, and Penske has risen from the law. Word!"

I was at a restaurant with an electronic toilet/bidet. It rocked. And they are not that expensive. http://www.thefactoryoutlet.com/bath/bidet/ Whoo Hoo!

Wow, you really are a swirling black hole of narcissism. NTTAWWT.

Re: Penske's Thread to be named later
 

not to be a physics timmy, but if he were a black hole we wouldn't hear the noise. he would swallow it, right?

Re: Penske's Thread to be named later
 

I also have issues with the metaphor. Is he sucking all narcissism into him, as a black hole does to all matter? Is he such a hyper-concentrated mass of narcissism, that he sucks everything else into that? Maybe that one works, kind of.

Anyway, I mostly am posting to say: Penske has risen! WORD!

We need to bring back the bidet in the US (was it ever here?). Doesn't Rasheed Wallace have a urinal in his master bathroom?

You saw that MTV Cribs, too? Wasn't that three teams ago?

Yeah, where is he?

I have a man-crush on sheed. here's my only problem- I don't know what the scar/bald spot is from, and in an interview he was asked "what question pisses you off most?" he siad being asked about the spot, so I"ll never know:confused:

I'm open to suggestions. Although I do like my new one. It's funny because the hat "Burt Reynolds" is wearing is larger than a normal-sized hat.

Ice Baths
 

Could any of the runners on the board talk to me about ice baths? I ran 13 miles on Sunday (I'm doing very little this week and next because my half-marathon is on the 25th), and it was my last long run before the race.
On my vacation, a marathoner preached to me about the benefits of ice baths so last Sunday I took one. I filled the bath with a big bag of cubes, put in some epsom salts and ran some cold water and got in* and managed to stay there for about five minutes. I think it helped my legs a bit, but I wanted to take a survey to see if any of you do ice baths, and how long you stay in, and if it helps, and if you take a hot shower after, etc.


*Motherfucking fucking hell, it was so fucking cold

I look at it and I hear Will Farrell singing Con Te Partiro from Stepbrothers. Which is funny, but I don't want it in my head anymore.

(You're totally right, that hat is larger than a normal-sized hat. My goodness)

Re: Ice Baths
 

Never done it. My way of recovering from marathons usually consists of drinking beer all day.

I'll trade you that song for the theme song to Dora.

Re: Ice Baths
 

1. I think that they rock-awesome for recovery.

2. I stayed in about 20-30 minutes. no pain no gain; although after 10 minutes or so, you get into a state where you can't feel the cold anymore.

3. I used to follow it up with sex, which can be like a hot shower, sort of. ymmv. :D

Re: Ice Baths
 

I, like Coltrane, have never done it. My coach said it was a bunch of hooey and I believed him, since I really want it to be a bunch of hooey.

Re: Ice Baths
 

WTFIWWY!!! Do it after training. I recall an epic weekend once upon a time. August. It was in the high 80s and humid at 6 AM. Rode from the Chi up to Lake Zurich, around the lake and back and then bricked a 15 miler along the lake in 100 degree heat.

Took an ice bath for an hour and went to bed.

The next day, same heat and humidity, did the Chicago Tri in 2:05:and change.

Another ice bath and then Pennys noodles for lunch.

Re: Ice Baths
 

Dissent. Is this a coach like Bob Greene, Oprah's faux-triathlete coach, who, as best as anyone in the fucking sport could tell had done like one sprint race ever and then Oprah expertised him?? :eek::confused:

Re: Ice Baths
 

never soaked in anytihng other than a whirlpool/jacuzzi when available. of course pro athletes soak in ice so there might be something to it if you are hurt.

:confused::confused:nwtf....am i on ignore?

Re: Ice Baths
 

Anyone with experience with recovery from 180 plus bike rides over the course of two days can also chime in. 100 miles on Saturday, 80ish on Sunday. MS150 my (sore, sore) ass.

Re: Ice Baths
 

gwnc and I are the masses when it comes to running. advice from the Gods, like you, is like our asking Franco how to get a pizza delivered quickly- "just order one, have the first guy killed for being late, and see if they don't get there quicker from then on."

we don't have the same support system you have- like you're sponsored by speedo, nike and a bike compnay right? any one of those would buy you an ice soaker and crew.

We're on our own.

Re: Ice Baths
 

Excellent. I have to say, I kind of liked it once I got past the initial shock. I just thought I was going to get hypothermic if I stayed in any longer. But I'll aim for 10 minutes at least next time.
