Teach Yourself Double Push
Fixing a Faulty Underpush
Aaron Arndt’s Panic Button Check out Aaron Arndt’s latest interesting entry called Stop pressing the panic button. He talks about training… fast, and concludes his post by saying ‘Moral: You are a machine that turns carrot sticks into whippin’ ’round the track at mach 10. So eat good fuel. Lots of it. And no, coffee doesn’t count. Nope, tea neither‘.       
FIRS Olympic Project Update2008-06-05 04:06 peterdoucet The text comes from here on the FIRS website;
‘Dear Friends of rollersports, I am writing from Athens, birthplace of Olympics and seat of Sportaccord 2008. Since these first days Sportaccord has confirmed its importance as meeting and support place for the Sports World, giving us the chance to meet most important IOC and International Federations Representatives. This year and the next one will be fundamental for the continuation and the carrying out of FIRS Olympic Project which will have its crucial moment in Copenhagen in 2009 through the voting of the new Olympic Program. We have been selected together with other six disciplines for the inclusion in 2016 Olympics and it has become necessary to go on with the significant Olympic promotion work which we carried on until now. Christophe Dubi and his staff in order to talk about the promotional activities to carry out, being our Sport one of the seven disciplines candidate for Olympic Program inclusion. Much has changed in comparison with 2005 Singapore vote, when many IOC members did not have any idea about the disciplines for which they were going to vote. First of all IOC members know Roller Sports now, some of them saw our on live events and had the chance to see also the promotional video presented, for the very first time, at Sportaccord this year (to have a look at it click here). Moreover the IOC understood the importance of valuing the disciplines apart from their economical strength and only up to their sport significance. To this direction an important step has been taken in order to guarantee the same opportunities to the candidate sports: limitations have been brought to the possibility of promoting its own candidature. Communication and promotion will have to be focused on sport events limiting, for example, the presence of Olympic Members at the Competitions to those who belong to the hosting Nation. Anyway it is possible to send promotional material to the IOC Members in order to let them know what our sport really is: photos, audio-video, brochures. Our events will be observed till the first semester of 2009 and we will promote our sport throughout traditional ways and new strategies. The meeting with Mr. Dubi has been really remarkable and that is also because of the opportunity we had to show him promotional material properly arranged – videos and brochures –. This gave us clear directions about the steps to take till September 2009: Participation to IOC events like “Sport for All” in November: it is a meeting with some IOC Members in order to talk about the social aspect of sport. Invitations for IOC Members, through IOC Department, participating to our events. Participation and promotion within the events recognised by IOC, like “Sportaccord” and meetings of NOC Continental Associations. Only in this way Olympic dream will come true.       
SSW Fundraising Drive- Day 32008-06-05 04:25 peterdoucet Welcome to the third of seven days of the SSW Fundraising Drive. To dondate, click on the picture below-
Thank you to those who have generously donated and supported SSW through the drive. A lot of people ask me ‘Pete, how much time do you spend on your site?’. I’ll start by saying that my top priorities include work, my girlfriend & family, and training. The simplest account of the time spend working on SSW is between 1 and 3 hours per day. I monitor websites on an ongoing basis looking for anything that I think should be shared on my site. I usually visit the message boards and forums first, followed by a few select news sites, and then followed by a number of key blogs. As I find items that I want to add to SSW, I bookmark them and save the links. After going through my usual internet path, I then go and visit more ‘obsure’ and less frequently updated websites for anything that I’ve missed in my comb-over. I’ll repeat this process over and over again. The next step is to start putting the news up on SSW. As I accumulate links and items, I devise a plan so that the updates make sense and aren’t overly confusing. Between re-sizing pictures, making sure the links are accurate, and *sometimes* running a spell check, I’ll post the items. Sometimes I’ll put one or two items on the site while my I am cooking my dinner. Other times, I’ll work on SSW while watching a documentary or TLC. I quite often work on SSW while chatting with my friends. I would say that for each entry that goes up on SSW, I have spent between 10-25 minutes digging up the information and posting it. I realize my reports have gone down in quality and depth. The reason is that when I get home, I don’t have time to write a good solid report as well as maintain SSW’s news. I have to make a choice. That’s why my videos may take a few days to ‘go up’ on the internet. Each minute that I work on SSW, I think about my priorities; when will I sleep? What time will I train? I should talk with my girlfriend. I need to go to work at such and such time. I do not let SSW affect those important things in my life. I work very hard on SSW and I give the most important thing that I can to SSW and to you; my time. Thank you for reading SSW, for following the wonderful sport of speed skating in all of its forms, and for supporting the SSW Fundraising Drive.
