Movember Week 3- the end


So after 2 weeks, I could no longer stand the facial hair. At work, my co-workers noticed that the growth potential had hit a plateau. They termed that my stache had 'failure to thrive.'' Fortunately my buddy who also started growing a stache, texted me asking "what i thought about shaving the 'stache?" I was happily thinking the same thing right before reading the txt msg. So 1 last picture and in the shower this AM, the 'stache was washed down the drain.
It's amazing how quickly i went from looking like a mexican back to asian. Who knew a little facial hair would cause such a ruckus.
I'm still in support of men's health but no longer feel the need to physically show it.

Movember week 2


After 1 week of growing a 'stache, I'm starting to think that I have grown to my potential. The sides have bud, however the middle is slow to fill in and in the last couple days, growth has slowed down. Only time will tell. Stay tune to see how the progression will be at the start of week 3.

off season training begins

My 2010 cycling season culminated this pas Sunday with the state road race championship. Now I am entering a new phase of my training- cross training, no structure, and having fun. Some tools in my arsenal will include but not limited to:

(1)swimming- to stay in shape and overall fitness


(2)iron- pumping it... build strength and strengthen the support connective tissues

(3)shoes- cyclical pattern faster than walking which includes being airborne, AKAs running- to build bone density with weight bearing impact


(4)and of course cycling- however not only am I going to be on the road, but I also aquired a set of rollers to help me be more stable and smooth on the bike

Operation off season super man begins......now!

Let the Stache begin

October- the month of pink and saving the ta-tas. Women's breast cancer awareness month. I'm all for the cause. I love the ta-tas. But sadly, the month has culminated. Which give opportunity for the month of November.
Or actually- Movember. This month begins Men's health and prostate awareness month. Men across the world display their support for the grand month by growing out a moustache. Details: http://us.movember.com.
This means that I will attempt to grow the longest moustache an asian guy can grow in one month. My full potential may be reached by day 7 or 8, but stay tuned as you see the crumbe catcher, flavor saver grow.
