Logo Transition By Arch & Christy Fuston, Fuston Creative

A
s triathletes, our lives are filled with transition, and not only in racing. What worked one year, might not work the next. Evolutions in products, training techniques, geographical changes, all contribute to our adaptation, or transitions, to these new scenarios set before us. A logo can experience transition as well. With all the new mediums developed since the 1990’s, a logo that was created primarily, if not exclusively for the print medium, faces certain challenges in the electronic age. These challenges, as well as the desire to have a logo that works hard across ALL mediums (print, Web, apparel, signage, mobile devices, etc.) was the motivation for the TCSD ”logo transition”. Understanding the equity of a logo is crucial. The equity of the original TCSD logo is profound within the core of club. Where the equity is challenged is outside of the club and how it is replicated to the masses... participants, general public, friends, family... anyone outside of the club that has a visual opportunity at the logo. Both ends of the equity spec-
trum were considered when transitioning the logo. Here is some insight into the creative process when designing the new logo: Shape: The triangle shape was maintained, but manipulated to take on the appearance of a wave, a geographical element unique to SoCal tri clubs. Form: The original logo was made up of multiple lines ranging from thin to thick. This was simplified by decreasing the number of “lines” to three, each representing one of the three aspects of the sport, and shaping the “lines” to form the triangular wave. The small, orange splashes between each “line” represent the transition in a triathlon. This evolution of the form allows effective reproduction of the logo on all mediums, and renders a mark that is visually strong. Color: The color palette was maintained with only slight modifications to achieve stronger results in electronic replication and on apparel. continued on page 20

TCSD CONVERSATION By Craig Zelent I was able to get Dean Sprague, the TCSD Newsletter Editor, to slow down long enough to talk triathlon. You have probably seen Dean at many TCSD events. It is time we get to know this great guy who has done so much for the club over the years. Craig: What was your athletic background prior to triathlon? Dean: Back in the day (Fifth or Sixth Grade??), I was involved in a cafeteria food fight which resulted in expulsion from the lunch room, so I ran home for lunch and got my fill of Leave It To Beaver and the Three Stooges. I participated in track during Middle School and Jr. High. Continuing on during my Freshman and Sophomore years, I competed in the half-mile, mile, two mile and in some of the team relays, messed around with hurdles, pole vault and the distance relays. I was not a speedster or anything like that. I didn't participate in any organized sports during college... too busy studying and working. During my years at Long Beach State, Los Angeles announced it was putting on a marathon and I wanted to be part of history, the 1st annual event (1986). That was my first “real” running race, with a finish time just under 4 hours. I have since competed in 38 stand-alone marathons and 50k’s, always wanting to improve. Self-coached, I managed to get my time down to a respectable 2:48 in a couple of marathons, Cape Town (South Africa) and Los Angeles. Craig: How did you get started racing triathlons? Dean: Ten years later, marathons were becoming boring even though they gave me a chance to compete all over the world. I wanted to change things up, everyone was doing them. To me, marathons had lost their “specialness”. Everyone was doing them, so I wanted to change things up. At the time I was living in Chicago and the Mrs. T’s Triathlon (the world‘s largest triathlon) was being advertised, so I
MEMBER PROFILE, continued Current Equipment Wetsuit: Xterra Bike: Kuota Kalibur Running shoe: Asics Equipment wish list: None, I have everything I want. Can’t race without: Speed laces. Best advice: Utilize organized group training. I train with Breakaway Training and it has made a big difference. The combination of structured workouts in a group setting fosters a competitive yet supportive environment which is invaluable. Also, owning your own business and having an understanding family doesn't hurt!
2004 California International Marathon (Sacramento) and 1986 Los Angeles Marathon. decided that would be my next challenge. I never had a road bike, just commuting back and forth to work on a mountain bike. Mrs. T’s had (and still does) a mountain bike division, so it was perfect. I had never swum or biked competitively. Fortunately, it was mid- summer and Lake Michigan was warm and close enough to be my training pool. I figured the biking part would not be a big deal to figure out. I think I signed up a couple of weeks before the race and started my training. (Back in the day, races did not sell out one year in advance.) before the race and started my training. I had no preconceptions of the outcome, but I knew I was a good runner and figured there would not be any “fast” people in the MTB division and I was right. I was the

overall winner of the seventy-seven participants. I killed the field and would have placed in the top ten (age group) in the regular division. Racing on a mountain bike was great. I was competing against people with “real” bikes and kicking their burrs. Of course, I learned I needed to “soup up“ the bike; fast forward seat post, clip on aero bars, and change to slick tires to maintain that magic number of 20mph. Yes, I eventually purchased a “real“ bike because Ironman was my next challenge. Actually, I was part of a triathlon relay team, (the runner), and biathlon, (swim/run), nine years earlier, but don’t remember much about them. As such, I don't count that as any start point as a triathlete. Craig: You accomplished a long time goal during 2009 of racing the Hawaiian Ironman. How did you qualify?
age group who earns the coveted spot, done deal right? Well not this year. There were a couple of groups where it was rolling down six, ten, and thirteen deep. There was even a carry over spot that was added to my age group. The 1st place guy took his spot, 2nd already had a spot so the 3rd place took the next spot. That means one more left, unheard of, so the announcer starts calling for number 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 all no shows. It ended up rolling down to me, in 9th position. I was totally caught off guard. It was not part of my 2009 plan. Payment is required that instant and I did not bring any extra cash with me. I hesitated for a moment, but decided I had to take the spot and I said, YES! Then off to the ATM to get the cash. Craig: How was the race in Kona? Dean: I had to rearrange my season, 1998 Mrs. T’s Triathlon (Chicago). courtesy Daniel Derkacs

Dean: Through the years I have been very close to qualifying for the World Championship, but never “good/fast” enough. Yes, I finally reach my goal last year, although I had no intention of it. I happened to be at the right race the right year. I chose to participate in the Hawaii 70.3 because I 2008 Solana Beach Duathlon. wanted to race in Hawaii/Kona area, cancel travel plans and races I already made. I since I had resigned qualifying for the World’s was very excited and planned to have a great Championship and any more IM branded race in Kona. As the seasoned progressed, my events (yeah I know, entry fees are out of this left foot had a different idea. Plantar fasciitis world now!) I had a good race but nothing had interrupted my life and affected much of special. After the event, I was hanging out my late season races and required training. I with a few different groups of friends and had self-treated for as long as I could with some no place to go, so I decided to hang around PT and eventually hooked up with Dr. Martinez for the awards ceremony and all the hoopla. the Monday before heading to Kona for a Normally, I would have been long gone since I “magic” shot of cortisone.

I wanted to have a respectable race Usually it is the first or second person in the and that was my last option. As it turned out,
I was able to function pretty much pain free during the run, although at a much slower pace than I had hoped for. I was happy to finally participate at the 'Big Dance', despite not being in optimal physical condition Craig: What Ironman races have you done in your racing career and how did you do?
in Säter, Sweden and Nice, France. A couple of years back I participated in the ITU World Championship Long Course Duathlon since it was ”local” Richmond VA. Representing the USA is pretty cool, there are only a handful of people who are able to participate at this level; it’s kind of a mini Olympic feeling and very special. I may be fast, but at these events I barely finish in the top half. That’s fine with me, its just having the chance to compete at a different level and enjoy the different experience.
Dean: Ever since I started racing iron distance events, I have done two or three a year. I have chased my dream, (qualifying for World’s), at IM Korea, Craig: You have had a very diverse racMalaysia, three ing career. times at IM WIS, Dean: As with running marathons, a few times Ironman was losing it’s special appeal. in Lake Placid, I wanted something more exciting and Coeur d’Alene, less common, Xterra was the obvious etc… I think it is choice.

Fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture until combined. Refrigerate batter for at least one hour so the ingredients combine completely and batter thickens (you can also refrigerate the batter overnight). Coat griddle or large skillet with non-stick spray and heat pan over medium heat. Scoop about ¼ cup of pancake batter onto heated pan, leaving enough room between pancakes to allow them to spread. Drop a heaping tablespoon of crushed pineapple in the middle of each pancake and cook for about 45 seconds, or until tops of pancakes bubble and edges begin to firm up. Carefully turn the pancakes over and continue to cook for an additional minute or until golden brown. Serve with pineapple side up, topping each pancake with a dollop of yogurt, fruit slices and a drizzle of maple syrup.

On January 19, 2010, Hank Montrose, Owner of Hi-Tech Bikes met with Father Joe of St Vincent de Paul’s Center and handed over their donations of new and used bikes as part of their “Bucks for Bikes” program. From October 10, 2009 through December 27, 2009, Hi-Tech Bikes collected both new and used bikes in exchange for a voucher worth up to $500 off the purchase of a new bike. As a sponsor for the Challenged Athletes Foundation and local chapters of Team in Training, HiTech wanted to also provide support this holiday season for families in need. “Bucks for Bikes” celebrated Hi Tech Bikes desire to provide great deals to their customers and mission to give back to the local community. Hi-Tech Bikes’ “Bucks for Bikes” program was designed to help consumers get rid of their old bikes and get them in a new one. Their donation to the Father Joe’s charity sweetened the deal. “We want to thank all of those who participated in the Bucks for

TRAIN SMART: A Critical Lesson By Raja Lahti So, you’re telling me VO2 Max isn’t the name of Top Gear’s (a British tv show) newest showcased sports car? I was sure I saw it came in LT & BMI editions as well. Sleek, zippy, and yes, weight really does matter with performance output. As it turns out, VO2 Max (maximal oxygen consumption), LT (lactic threshold) and BMI (body mass index) all metrics used by sports physiologists to gauge performance potential, output and efficiency. As a triathlete, these numbers matter, a lot. After seeing Ken Nicodemus’s (owner of The Fit Stop) special price posting on TCSD’s web forum, my husband Dave & I took the opportunity over the holidays to see what the myths & legends of VO2 Max/Lactate Threshold testing were all about. Would I survive? Would I register on the scale of “sorta-fit-athletes”? If Lance defines the high end of that scale, would
I define the low end? If weight matters, would all of my holiday feastings be grossly apparent? In short, Yes, Yes, No, Kinda.

TCSD Conversation, continued Craig: Which events have been among your favorites and why? Dean: Having the fortunate opportunity to race and travel all over the world, it’s hard to ”select any single favorite event. Every event is special for it unique qualities; IM Malaysia was great for it’s ”third world” atmosphere, yet well organized. I had one of my fastest bike splits there, but a horrible run due to the unreal humidity. Silverman (Henderson, NV), is a great event for the toughness factor. I thought Lake Placid was a beautiful place until I raced in Coeur d’Alene, now it’s Redmond/Bend, OR and the Pacific Crest Festival up there. I do the half iron distance on Saturday and the Olympic distance on Sunday. The Chicago Triple Challenge is also great, three triathlons in two days. I like Gotta love Xterra ! the multi event/day stuff now. It’s just the next level of challenging myself. Craig: Speaking of favorites, what is your favorite part of being a TCSD member? Dean: It has to be the value of the membership. For such a “cheap” entry fee the Club

offers so much; food, friendship, racing, friendly competition and rivalry. Craig: You have seen the sport evolve in many ways over the years. What has been the biggest change for the good that you have noticed? Dean: Actually I missed out on the early years of triathlon. To me, the biggest change is the sport has grown so much and is accessible to everyone, any skill level, any age and physical ability. I love to see the “old timers” out there. I hope to be out there also as I age up. Craig: How about for the bad? Dean: Bad? Don’t know anything about that, when triathlon can bring so much joy into one’s life. Craig: What is the funniest thing you have done as a triathlete? Dean: Funniest? I usually don’t joke around. I call it having fun. The theme races the Club has, racing all out in a costume. I hope the club has more theme races, such as MTB/beach cruiser only
race, Final Four, etc… Craig: What do you do for a living? Dean: I am a freelance graphic designer (Sprague Design), apartment manager, bike fitter/coach for my own company (PedPowerPerform Lab), owner/ manufacturer of a “hands-free” hydration system (Oasis OneTwelve). I also am race director/ promoter for the San Diego Indoor Triathlon Series. Being the boss, I am able to set my own work and play schedule. Craig: Do you have any sponsors?
free entry into races. As a matter of fact, being a member for Triathlon Club of San Diego is just like being sponsored! Craig: What are your future triathlon goals? Dean: This year it’s to stay healthy/injury free, I will be keeping tabs on my foot issue. Without goals, participating in sports (and life) is kind of pointless. This year, my main goal is to set a PR at the iron distance, other than that, keep trying to improve upon previous times. No long-term goals. I just want to say, it does not matter what level of equipment or fitness level you start with. It’s about the journey, having fun, setting and surpassing goals and encouraging others along the way. Craig: Dean, thanks for sharing

dreds of athletes, to determine my personal metrics. Other than having a great experience, I came away with more than I could have ever imagined. The Big Deal: VO2 is a measure of how much oxygen your body can use. Lactate threshold (LT) is the point when your energy demands outrun your aerobic system’s ability to deliver energy and lactic acid begins to accumulate. (When you’re out on a hard ride or climbing a hill and your legs turn to bricks, you can generally blame it on an acidosis and neural fatigue that develops when above the LT) These numbers are important because they determine your current endurance performance potential and your optimal training zones. Potential is an interesting number, but more important are your optimal training zones. You can read every endurance training book on the shelves, or talk to as many coaches for advice, but the reality is everybody is different and you may, or may not, fall in assumed athletic zones based primarily on your age. Whether you have a coach providing you with training plans or following your own plan, do you really know where your lactate threshold really is? Do you know at what intensity your body is burning fat? I thought I had an idea and had been training accordingly over the last 5 or so years. Turns out I had been doing my long slow, fat burning rides too hard, and most of my interval work (choke) not hard enough. I used to call coach Lesley Patterson the “Scottish Devil” for her tough one-on-one workouts… but perhaps I should be calling her my “Great Scott” for actually getting my intensity up where it needs to be. Turns out her workouts were spot on. I learned what BMI stands for: Body Mass Index. It’s not nearly as frightening as I anticipated.I have a love for food and wine and find it impossible to diet. I do, however, try to eat healthy during peak training times; otherwise, I simply don‘t have the energy I need.
Even yet, I have always figured I could gain in performance to loose a few more pounds. After a l l , some of these age group athletes are skinny enough to be a human anatomy lesson. Trust me, when I say my current BMI isn’t at my “ideal” value, but for this time of the year, I’m on track. Surprisingly, I learned that at the end of the summer when I am usually peaking, I am at my ideal BMI. To be less means I am close to causing more harm than good and would have to get some professional advice on nutrition to make sure my body is being adequately fueled. VO2 Max, LT and BMI were only a few of the pearls I learned during my session at Fit Stop. I learned about my heart rate zones vs power zones and the difference when it came to training. I learned about areas to target for increase performance output. As valuable as these metrics are for me and my goals, I learned first hand that there are two ways to train; training to better tolerate fatigue, and training to go faster longer without fatigue. You can bet I will be back at Fit Stop in the next few months to measure my progress and gauge if my training program is doing what I want it to do. Whether you have a coach or are self-coached, learning your personal metrics is probably one of the most valuable tools we can use. With the limited hours we have to train between work, family and whatever else we do, training smarter is the only option when there just simply aren’t enough hours in the day. How smart do you train? Fit Stop Human Performance Lab is an official sponsor of TCSD. Ken can be reached at (760) 634-5169. www.fitstop-lab.com, Email: kjnico@fitstop-lab.comtel.

JOYS OF CYCLING By Richard L. Duquette, Esq. I’ve talked enough about law and cycling injuries this year, so let’s talk about the joys of cycling. It all started in 1973 for me, when I regularly saw an eccentric tall high school classmate riding to school on a Schwinn Paramount racing bicycle. He wore a fishnet helmet, and seemed to be in his own world at Edison High School in Huntington Beach. I always wondered about him, he hung out at Two Wheel Transit Authority Cycle shop on Main street in Huntington Beach. (I’ve often fantasized about being a bicycle mechanic in my own shop, in some remote place.) Then, there was a lifeguard neighbor and friend named Al. He rode from home to his lifeguard tower job and seemed to like it. In contrast, I just rode a few miles to High School, then later to Orange Coast College as I couldn’t afford a car. Ultimately, I tore the ligaments in my knee trying to stretch a double into a triple during a baseball game, and had surgery. So, bicycling became my rehabilitation. Being a bit compulsive, Al, the lifeguard, talked me into riding to Cabo San Lucas, Baja Mexico, one Christmas. I did, and my knee healed after 1,100 miles of pedaling across Baja, with fully loaded panniers. I’ll never forget the smells, sights, and sounds as I crossed the Baja countryside for 14 days and some times into the night. When I returned, I became a college and law school bicycle commuter for seven years, rain or shine. Riding home at night was an adventure, with a “T” light strapped to my outer leg, hoping cars saw me in the night. That sure was fun! I grew to love cycling so much, I decided one Spring break to pack my bike in a box and fly to
Lake Charles, Louisiana. That summer I bicycled solo across the South, through New Orleans to Gulf Port, Mississippi to visit a friend. The people in the remote rural gas stations, where I often stopped for a “cool drink,” (cold Coke), thought I was crazy riding across the dessert all the way from California. I didn’t let on, as I liked watching them just shake their heads in bewilderment. Well, I’m now a grown man and sure miss those days, and doing a lot of mountain bike/triathlon races – guess my priorities have changed. Nevertheless, I still ride, but not as often or as far, but when I do, work and life pressures fade away. It can be as simple as a mountain bike ride along the coast. One client recently loaned me the entire video set of Lance Armstrong wining the Tour de France. I now vicariously race through video! You know, I’m a trial lawyer by profession and when local cyclists visit me, it always brings joy to my day. It rekindles some of my fond cycling memories. Mr. Duquette is a California Personal Injury Trial Attorney who since 1983 has mixed law with his love of Bicycling and Surfing from Baja to Bali. He can be reached at (760) 730-0500 or email: rduquete@911law.com web: www.911law.com.
Logo Transition, continued The goal of the logo evolution was not discard, but to build on the solid foundation of the original logo. This resulted in a logo that adapts to all mediums and is powerful enough to be THE
visual element of all things TCSD. Used consistently, the new logo can continue to position TCSD as the nation’s premier triathlon club.
