Kill Kuato

Bout ready to take a trip to San Salvador.  I had to update this blog since I have not posted to it lately.  I am getting donated gear for comandos de salvamento from Wenatchee Valley clinic. Thanks Damaris! Donations include, some splints, needles, gauze, iodine swabs, foley caths, and some gloves.  Fotos will be posted to the flicker link on the right. I will be staying in Mejicanos and in San Bartolo, but mostly at Base Central of the comandos located below.  I will be in Guatemala for a bit also, but only three days.

Monday, February 16, 9:52 PM – marco:

Been training for a Marathon and Half Iron Man for April and July 2009. Starting to enjoy music again.

ya I bought a nano. I need a one eared earphone though.

Vertigo is slightly there, stronger on the bike..

This is the last post I will be entering on thestatus.com

for now, everything will be tranferring to killkuato.com via wordpress

I had a bike fit on my restored 90’s Allez and feel pretty good about it.  I plan to do a Half Iron this summer with it, but will need a serious upgrade for IronMan 2010.  He basically wants to convert my road bike into a tribike-moving me forward over the tire. The Bike fit is below, if anyone is interested to give me pointers.  Jason is a pro tri and Xterra racer who does fits for Black Diamond Sports Therapy in Washington.

Comments: Work on driving the knee over the handlebars during drill work on trainer.  Want to create better hip flexor strength as well as eliminating heel drop.

Corrective Steps (if any):

Mechanical: Left Foot- 3 mm varus tilt/slide foot closer to bike/angle cleat 1mm to allow for heel out.

Right Foot-1.5 mm Varus Tilt/ angle cleat 1 mm to allow for heel out.  Saddle- forward 7 mm.

Structural:

Knee Angle: TDC=106                        Saddle Height= 31 3/4                                      H-Bar height= 36 7/8

TBC=37                        Seat Tube angle (Center of saddle)=     70 degee

Reach (saddle tip to bar)=21 3/4

Recommendations: Profile Fast forward seat post in 350 length/  110 to 120 mm 0 degree quil stem.

That’s right F@#k you Kuato. I am running a Marathon soon.

@ 1 hr 30, a Clif Bar and some powerade. pissed.

@ 2 hrs pissed.

@2.45 pissed, another gel, and some powerade.

@ 325-340-Powerade, legs hurt bad, as in walking on stilts–my legs with no feet, ankles felt swelled.

Here is a map of the run.

April 21st is the Marathon.
In March I am going to El salvador for 3 weeks to have some fun, and elections! Guate too for about 4 days.

I have not posted in a while. Been hunting, running,  enjoying time with Bro in law up from El Sal, and trying to learn Bachata. Kick ass Pareja out of Tampa.
