All sarcasm aside (yes, that was sarcasm above) here are a few of my favorite YouTube videos, in no particular order. Believe it or not, most of them are not triathlon-related... yes, I do other things with my time, which I wanted to share with you... plus this is a sweet excuse for me to not actually have to write that much...
1) This is from the USC Ski and Snowboard team. They actually have a pretty sweet YouTube channel, and this is one of my favorites of theirs. As far as I can tell, it is filmed entirely from a GoPro camera, and the soundtrack is baller:
2) Epic Mealtime. If you're not familiar with these guys, get familiar. This is exactly my sense of humor, and plays into my love of cooking... although I'm not sure I could actually eat any of this shit...
3) The Haka. This is a Maori war chant, which we did in college on the swim team (we had a Kiwi on the team who loved his rugby and showed us how to do it) When I think back on college swimming, this is one of the things I miss most. Even if we weren't intimidating, we felt like we were... and I am pretty sure we actually were. Pure testosterone and adrenaline... and not in the teenage bedroom sense...
4) The first time I saw this, I was on the trainer... I got so into it I nearly fell off the bike. This is incredible, they are literally flying. I cannot think of another word to describe it other than magical.
5) This is a great commercial from Dick's Sporting Goods. I like to watch it to get motivated for a workout sometimes. Dick's has a ton of great ads!
6) For my non-triathlete followers out there, this is a taste of some draft-legal racing. This is the highlight video from the 2012 Olympic Qualifier in San Diego. I could watch these all day, but then again its kinda what I do...
Well I hope you've enjoyed these videos and procrastinated from work/studying a bit longer today. Until next time, FOLLOW THE PACE RABBIT!
