A neat thing I learned today

[garote]

It's all down to a simple molecular process, happening a trillion times over inside your body:

This process, in a nutshell, is why long-distance bicyclists don't stand up in their pedals, and never attempt to "power their way up" a hill. If you have, say, 2000 calories of food percolating in your body and you need to ride as far as you can, burning those 2000 calories in a breathless rush will get you 30 miles -- but burning them aerobically will get you 90 miles or more.

Hi! I walked in the hills at sunset last night and was thinking about you and trying to "separate" memories of you -- when we met, first this or that -- and realized I couldn't; you're too much inside me like The La.
