Triathlon Fuel

No, I’m not talking about Hammer Gel or Carbo Pro. Not about Power Bars or Power Gel. I’m talking about REAL fuel. MAN FUEL.

Recently, I picked up my brother-in-law and his girlfriend and drove them to the airport. As a “thank you” gift for picking them up, they had a large Papa Murphy’s ALL MEAT pizza waiting for me.



They knew that the ladies that I live with would leave that meaty mess alone, and that it would be all mine. Ten minutes later, over 1,500 calories were in my belly (half of the pizza):



I saved the other 1,500 calories for the next day. Fuel. Man fuel. Fuel for life. Fuel for Triathlons. Maybe a little too much fuel. My tank was full. My tank runneth over. Then I had to clean the bathroom.

  4. **News Flash**

    The men of the square table have proposed and adopted a new man law.

    Man Law: No substance recognizable as plant or vegetable material shall be permitted to adorn a man's pizza, nor must a man share a pizza consisting of only tomatoe sauce, meat and dairy toppings with any married or unmarried female that shares his abode. Instead, the second half of such meaty/dairy-y pizza should be eaten the next day, preferably for breakfast.

  5. MMMmmmm...
    You'll have to report how it tastes for breakfast. Nothing like cold pizza before a little bike ride.

  6. It's best to fuel up RIGHT before a ride, that way you make the most of it and don't waste any calories. Mmmm.... meaty breakfast and Zone 5 workout ;)
