Love is all you need?

A few submissions for your review and critical analysis. Think of this as a three song EP.

First one is on love. Seems that when one is head over heels one feel less pain than when simply level headed and well heeled. Or something to that effect. Who am I to disagree? I have done many similar experiments and concur with the findings as reported HERE.

Second, HERE, is a tasty morsel from Slate on the paradox of buying food, also doubling as an addendum to yesterdays post on Michael Pollan. I also have a suggestion to those that buy cheap food because it is all they can afford: Before every burger take your heart rate to Big Max.

Lastly today, because we have now launched (to critical acclaim) our new in-class CompuTrainer TT testing (where this morning we witnessed a stunning 15 mile performance by Stephanie), is a comparison of what others are doing using this powerful tool in a supportive training environment. From EFC in Ohio.

So let's review today's lessons: Love lessens pain. Eating well lessens risk of disease. Testing and training elevate performance and fitness.

Risking then, potential plagiarism and probable scorn, I humbly submit the Monday Mashup:

With regular time trailing and eating the best local, organic and healthy food you can afford, love is all you need.

Words by Lennon, McCartney and RCVman.

Hey, I hang in a fast crowd. (but John, please stop looking at me that way)
