Flickr + Lightroom plugin

I just stumbled on the Flickr apps page and found a Lightroom plugin that exports photos directly from my photo editor. It removes the fuss of exporting jpeg versions, then uploading them separately, plus has a bunch of automation features, like Twitter integration and triggering Flickr settings off of keywords. No doubt, I'll just use a small portion of the automation, but the export core feature (which took 2 minutes to get installed and setup) seems like a big time saver.

Pure awesome so far.

Summary of my 09 season

To wrap up my season (I can't plan ahead with the knee injury, so my season plans are done), here's my WKO+ Performance Management Chart for 2009.

Red is short-term load (7-day trend). Blue is 42-day trend. Yellow is fatigue relative to long-term load.

The training stress score / load is a measure of time and intensity, where 100 points is equal to one hour at 60-minute max sustainable pace. In 09, typical moderately brisk 3-4 weekend rides are 150-200 TSS, 1-2hr weekday rides are 40 to 120 TSS.

My program was quite structured from November to injury in late April, working with Whole Athlete. Monday and Thursday were rest days, off the bike. Tuesday was sprints/speedwork, Wednesday was tempo endurance/intervals, Friday cadence, Saturday hills, and Sunday base.

Hellyer Friday Night 5/8 Photos

Given it was the first Friday night racing of the season, it's not surprising there was a big crowd on and off the track. A handful of mice went down to Hellyer on Friday to watch, including Tim, DanM, Mateo, and Bev. Racing for the Mouse were Jay, Jeff, Nole, Cathy, and Ashley.

Jeff loaned me his Canon 580 flash for the night, so I managed to get some decent photos even after it turned dark. It's so automatic and easy, it would have been helpful in the difficult light when the sun was setting, especially as fill light for the 3/4 Scratch finish, when I was shooting into the sun. With the light issues later and a lot of dupes of the 3/4 scratch (when the light was decent), this shoot had a particularly high discard rate. I only kept 25-30% of the photos.
