Promote a Healthy Cycle-Cross Season

Time flies Once again, it is cycle-cross season and the West coast has a rich history in that discipline. First started as a fun way for road cyclists to break the monotony of winter training, it has since evolved to become its own very popular cycling discipline and attracts anywhere from hundreds to thousands of cyclists at each events.
In the United States the cycle-cross season typically runs from September through December, with the World Championships held somewhere in Europe during the first week of February. Preparation for the season requires different training strategies than those for road and mountain racing. Attention to these specific details is often what makes the difference between staying healthy and having reasonable results.
Tips to improve and promote a healthy ‘cross season:
Run
most swimmers and bicyclists look funny when they try to run. Their muscles and joints are not well prepared for their feet to hit the ground with such force. Ease into it running for the purposes of cycle-cross training should start as late as July. Endurance running should occur approximately twice a week; combine a road or track session and an off-road or trail run.
Stretch
the demands of road cycling on the legs are different than that of ‘cross riders who have much higher demand (range of motion and strength) on hip flexors, hamstrings and the Achilles.
Coordinate
Jumping off the bike at 20 mph onto wet, slippery and unstable ground requires a high level of coordination. The typical road cyclist is not as coordinated off of the bicycle. Polymeric training is a great start to improving your fall fitness.

In Silicon Valley, a region known for some of the worst traffic in the nation, Google, the Internet search engine giant and online advertising behemoth, has turned itself into Google, the mass transit operator. Its aim is to make commuting painless for its pampered workers - and keep them. The company now ferries about 1,200 employees to and from Google daily aboard 32 buses equipped with comfortable leather seats and wireless Internet access.
