Do the Duathlon
Just what is a duathlon?
Dualthlons are a 2-discipline sport that includes running and cycling ( basically run-bike-run). Duathlons were called biathlons when it appeared in the 1980’s. But a regular Olympic event was also called biathlon (a ski and shoot event which started in 1763), so the change to duathlon.
This is my first time to write about Duathlon, but when when I started cycling almost two decades ago, one of people I looked up to after Greg Lemond was Kenny Souza.
American Ken Souza was a character himself. Based on endorsements in the cycling magazines back then, I think that Souza was more popular than triathlete legends Mark Allen and Scott Tinley in their prime. What made Souza popular was in the
Obviously, Souza couldn’t swim so he missed out on the triathlon bandwagon which has overshadowed duathlons since.
However, duathlon is alive in
I have done a couple of races in a my very short “triathlon career” and I can say that it is a very, very, hard sport! It is the “run” part which is very painful . And with two runs in this event, that would mean double the pain. I think that the advantage of duathlons over triathlons is that it is more sport-friendly than triathlons, since swimming is out of the equation.
If you’re into endurance sports, you should try duathlon before your knees will give way. The irony here is that runners will think that they have an advantage over cyclists and vice versa. It may hurt to say this but I think that runners have an edge over cyclists. If you’re just curious, please text or call RJ at this number: 0915.800.9241, and good luck!
Fr. John Geohgan
While I believe that dishonest cops, corrupt politicians and judges on the take are people who society should put behind bars, priests who sexually abuses kids deserves to burn in the Big Oven. Like most people, I don’t understand how the Church works but what I understand is that there is a code of Omerta comes into play and hush money changes hands when stuff like “sexual abuse” happens.
Consider this: Last July, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles has agreed to pay $660 million to more than 500 people who said they were abused by priests and other clerics. In 2003, two local boys were alleged to have been paid Php120,000 each not to pursue a sexual abuse case against a priest who was a member of the Order of
But the most infamous priest/pedophile was Fr. John Geohgan of
But why is the Archdiocese of Boston trying to settle the case? Because there allegedly is evidence that the archdiocese had transferred Geohgan from parish to parish despite knowledge of his criminal behavior. Sounds familiar?
