Training Log Archive: j-man

ALu invited me to play golf in NC in April. I think I will regret it if I don't go.

It is noski, but all of a sudden I have lost one of my primary motivations to train.

I have been thinking about what a factor analysis or PCA of people's assessment of the presidential candidates would look like and what weight they would assign to different factors.

Would personality (charisma and all those other things) and platform (ideas, objectives) stand-out as factors? Which would dominate? Are there other orthogonal factors?

Now, apply this lens to different electoral systems. How would this play out under timocracy, autocracy, plutocracy, etc? I'd be interested in the unfolding of the process as well as binary evaluations. How about in a caucus, primary, general election situation?

Condensed weights. Dips, back, pull-downs, etc.

Level 11.

Level 8 hills. Intended to do 8 mph, but my upper left hamstring was so bad today that I couldn't even do that. By the end I felt loser, but decided to keep it easy.

Level 6 hills.
