These are Allan's adventures. Friday, October 15, 2010. Hawaii week 1 and week 2. My Hawaii trip consists of 3 legs (like a triathlon). Part 1 is the Ironman World championships, Part 3 is the Xterra world championship. Part 2 are adventures I did on my own around the island of Hawaii. After the flight to Kailua-kona, I swam a portion of the Ironman World Championship course. It's BEAUTIFUL! It's literally like swimming in an aquarium full of coral and fish! My initial reason for going on this 3 week adv...

WHERE IS ALLAN?: October 2009
http://whereisallan.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
These are Allan's adventures. Saturday, October 17, 2009. The fact that I made the start line is a story in itself.there was a fire on one of the ferries Friday evening, RIGHT BEFORE A LONG WEEKEND! That ferry was taken out of service making it SUPER busy. You couldn't drive onto the ferry without a reservation.and on Saturday the ferries were booked up till 5pm (on paper), But since a ferry was out of service, everyone was bumped back 2 or 3 hours. I had pulled them out to let them dry. BOO So i too...

These are Allan's adventures. Wednesday, August 25, 2010. 4 days till Ironman. Very interesting.i just moderated my comments and found that my review of the Ironman Phillipines 70.3 was mentioned on a GoTriathlete.com link. It's nice to be in the same paragraph as Terenzo Bozzone. http:/ www.gotriathlete.com/races details.aspx? Quick summary of the day. 9am we went for a 1 hour ride along the run course. From looking at the elevation profile I assumed that it was a Pancake Flat course! As i'm sitting her...

http://whereisallan.blogspot.com/2010/08/3-days-till-ironman.html
These are Allan's adventures. Thursday, August 26, 2010. 3 days till ironman. Once again I skipped swimming in the Ok Lake this morning. I spent about $200 buying Ironman Canada gear. I got a visor, mug, cowbells, biking jersey, running jacket, water bottles and a few other things. The afternoon was spent eating 2 lunches again and watching 'date night'. I then read a few chapters of a book, sorted through the goodie bag.time kind of disappeared cuz now it's 9:30pm and i'm ready to sleep!

http://whereisallan.blogspot.com/2010/08/ironman-week-day-1.html
These are Allan's adventures. Tuesday, August 24, 2010. 5 days till Ironman. Today was a day of Travel! I had a lazy dinner of roasted chicken, romaine lettuce, naan bread and hummus. I'm pretty sleepy and tired from the long day of travel. I still have a dry cough but the running nose is a bit better. I popped a tylenol for the headache halfway through the car drive. We're watching a bit of Family guy now and it's time to hit the sack. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Calgary, AB, Canada.

WHERE IS ALLAN?: Ironman week is coming!
http://whereisallan.blogspot.com/2010/08/ironman-week-is-coming.html
These are Allan's adventures. Monday, August 23, 2010. Ironman week is coming! I've asked some close friends and family to keep me in prayer specifically with the sickness that I'm experiencing. I did a lot of reminiscing this week about where I've come from athletically. It's been a 13 year journey since I started in athletics. Up until jr high I was the typical Chinese kid who played piano, went to speech arts, Kumon, Chinese school etc etc. Everything BUT sports! This post came from an e-mail which ha...
