Stuck in the same gear? Not happy with your race speed? It might mean you need more work on being responsive. How do you build another gear? Glad you asked. Today, we get into why triathletes often feel stuck at the same speed and how to break the cycle. We look at swimming, biking, and running and give some thought on how to create more of a range, especially when you need it. Going fast can feel good and fun, but sometimes our Zone 4 effort equals our Zone 2 speed in a race. Today, we look at solid and proven ways to break out of being a one-speed wonder, but note, it's not always easy. Topics: Last week on C26 Coming at you consistently We're the podcast version of an age-grouper that outlasts everyone to qualify for Kona New Orleans 70.3 memories Swim rant?

There's a sale over there! Let's take a look!” Ji-won shouted excitedly.Ko: 동호는 미소를 지으며 답했다. “그래, 가보자. 하지만 선물도 잊지 말아야 해.”En: Dong-ho replied with a smile, “Sure, let's go. But don't forget about the gift.”Ko: 그러나 복잡한 인파 속에서 동호는 시간이 흘러가는 것을 느꼈다.En: However, as they navigated through the crowded streets, Dong-ho felt time slipping away.Ko: 그의 마음은 조금씩 조급해졌다.En: His mind grew increasingly anxious.Ko: "지원을 따라다니다가 필요한 걸 못 찾을 수도 있어." 그는 속삭였다.En: “I might not find what I need if I keep following Ji-won around,” he whispered.Ko: 지원은 동호의 고민을 눈치채고 말했다. "나중에 선물 찾아도 돼. 지금은 그냥 즐겨봐!"En: Noticing his concern, Ji-won reassured him, “You can find the gift later. Just enjoy the moment for now!”Ko: 하지만, 동호는 결심했다.En: Nonetheless, Dong-ho made up his mind.Ko: “조금 떨어져볼까?” 그는 고민 끝에 지원에게 말했다.En: “Shall we split up for a bit?” he finally said to Ji-won.Ko: 지원은 고개를 끄덕이며 응원했다. “그럼! 혼자 다니는 것도 재미있을 거야. 나중에 여기서 만나자!”En: She nodded and encouraged him, “Of course! Going around alone can be fun too. Let's meet up here later!”Ko: 동호는 홀로 길을 걸었다.En: Dong-ho walked down the road alone.Ko: 조금 지나자 머리가 어지러워지고, 발걸음이 무거워졌다.En: Soon he started to feel dizzy, and his steps became heavy.Ko: 인파는 점점 밀려들었고, 그는 심호흡을 했다.En: The crowd was swelling around him, and he took a deep breath.Ko: 그때 갑자기 작은 가게가 눈에 들어왔다.En: At that moment, a small shop caught his attention.Ko: 그 가게는 특이하게 장식되어 있었다. 호기심에 안으로 들어갔다.En: It was uniquely decorated, and out of curiosity, he went inside.Ko: 작은 촛불과 아기자기한 소품들이 빛나는 그곳.En: The small candles and cute trinkets lit up the place.Ko: 동호는 마음이 따뜻해지는 것을 느꼈다.En: Dong-ho felt his heart warming.Ko: 선반 위에 놓인 작은 음악상이 그를 사로잡았다.En: A small music box on the shelf captivated him.Ko: "이거다!" 그는 속으로 외치며 음악상을 구매했다.En: “This is it!” he exclaimed to himself and bought the music box.Ko: 여동생이 좋아할 거라는 확신이 들었다.En: He was sure his sister would love it.Ko: 다시 밖으로 나온 그는 지원을 찾아다녔다.En: Stepping back outside, he went looking for Ji-won.Ko: 명동의 빛과 소리 속에서, 숨어 있던 그를 찾게 되었다.En: Among the lights and sounds of Myeong-dong, he eventually found her hiding.Ko: “지원아!” 그는 손을 흔들며 달려갔다.En: “Ji-won!” he shouted, waving and running toward her.Ko: 지원은 웃으며 맞이했다. “찾았구나!”En: She welcomed him with a smile, “You found me!”Ko: 두 친구는 서로의 자랑을 나누며 따뜻한 음료를 손에 들고 길을 걸었다.En: The two friends shared their excitement as they held warm drinks in their hands and strolled down the road.Ko: 밤하늘에는 불꽃놀이가 시작되었고, 명동의 거리에는 새해가 가까워졌다는 기쁨이 넘쳐흘렀다.En: Fireworks began lighting up the night sky, and the streets of Myeong-dong were filled with the joy of the approaching new year.Ko: 동호는 그 순간 즐기는 것이 얼마나 중요한지를 깨달았다.En: Dong-ho realized the importance of enjoying the moment.Ko: 하지만 목표도 잊지 않았다.En: Yet, he didn't forget his goal.Ko: 이제 동호는 목표와 순간을 함께 즐길 줄 알게 되었다.En: Now, Dong-ho learned how to enjoy both goals and moments together.Ko: 예기치 않은 기쁨이 그를 덮고 있었다.En: Unexpected joy showered over him.Ko: 둘은 웃으며 겨울밤을 함께 걸었다.En: The two walked through the winter night laughing together.Ko: 그날은 동호가 이룬 소중한 하루였다.En: That day was a cherished day that Dong-ho accomplished.

THE TURKEY SHOOT AND THE WORLD WONDERS Colleague Craig Symonds. During the Battle of the Philippine Sea, Spruance prioritized protecting the Saipan beachhead, resulting in the "Turkey Shoot" that decimated Japanese air power but allowed enemy ships to escape. Later, at Leyte Gulf, the Japanese lured Halsey's Third Fleetaway with empty carriers, leaving the invasion force vulnerable. Nimitz, breaking his rule against interfering, sent a query asking the location of Task Force 34. Padding in the encrypted text added the phrase "the whole world wonders," which insulted Halsey and caused him to throw a tantrum during a critical hour of the battle. NUMBER 6 1945 OKINAWA

The New Year often brings new rhythms and regimens. Many people shake off holiday sloth with new exercise, sleep, and eating goals. It's also a great time to shake off spiritual sloth as Joel encourages us to allow the Spirit to shake up our lives.

Regular readers of MinistryWatch know that I'm a bit of a Ryan Burge fan-boy. His weekly Substack column, “Graphs About Religion,” is required reading for me. I cite it often in my weekly “Signs and Wonders” column. That's why I'm kind of geeking out today, now that we finally have him on the podcast. The occasion for this get-together is his new book. It's called The Vanishing Church: How The Hollowing Out of Moderate Congregations is Hurting Democracy, Faith, and Us. I've got to admit that when I saw the title of this book, I thought to myself, “I'm not sure the hollowing out of moderate congregations is such a bad thing.” Jesus himself didn't have much use for lukewarm Christians. But I have to admit that, after reading Ryan's book, I have – well – moderated my position on moderate congregations. At least…moderately. As you'll hear, I push back on Ryan's thesis a bit, and as I think you will also hear, this was a lively and respectful conversation. Ryan Burge is a professor of practice at The Danforth Center on Religion and Politics at Washington University. He previously taught at Eastern Illinois University. He is the author of several previous books, including his 2023 book The Great Dechurching, which may have been my onramp to Ryan's work. In addition to writing his weekly Substack column, which I just mentioned, he is also a regular contributor to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Politico, and other publications. He has appeared on CBS News' flagship program 60 Minutes, and has been cited by countless other news programs, podcasts, and news articles. We had this conversation via zoom.

In Week 3 of our Joy to the World Christmas series, we explore “The Wonders of His Love.” Rooted in Ephesians 3:16–19, discover how God's love moves toward us first, reaches farther than our failures, and brings real change to our hearts and lives. 

On this episode of Superlative, host and founder of aBlogtoWatch, Ariel Adams, sits down with Benoît Mintiens, the founder of Ressence, for an in-depth conversation on what it truly means to rethink modern watchmaking. Marking 15 years of Ressence, Benoît reflects on the emotional and strategic weight of watch trade shows like Watches and Wonders, the enduring importance of in-person experiences in a digital world, and how human connection continues to drive enthusiasm for mechanical timepieces. The discussion moves into the realities of running an independent watch brand, from the unexpected “show business” demands placed on founders to the challenges of building a company without becoming its sole personality. Benoît explains Ressence's core philosophy of applying industrial design thinking to fine watchmaking, detailing how starting from the user experience rather than the movement has led to radical ideas such as oil-filled dials, crown-less cases, and the groundbreaking e-Crown system. Ariel and Benoît explore why most consumers buy watches for the brand rather than the products themselves, how independent brands operate at the edge of the industry's ecosystem, and why disruption often comes from designers and engineers willing to challenge century-old norms. Listen in on their conversation as the two look at the fragile industrial supply chain behind high-end watchmaking, the cost and complexity of true innovation, and why Ressence's future-focused approach continues to resonate with a global community of curious, forward-thinking collectors.Stay updated with Benoît and Ressence Watches:- https://ressencewatches.com/ - https://www.instagram.com/ressence_watches/ SUPERLATIVE IS NOW ON YOUTUBE!

How can we delight in God's love? In this last Advent episode, Jacque and Stacy are joined by Micah Harrison as they discuss what it looks like to truly love God and love others. How do we differentiate between the things that we "enjoy" and the things that we "love?" Be encouraged as we wrap us this series that you can both know and experience the love of God and share it joyfully with the world around us.

So why signs? Why wonders? Why miracles? Because He loves to confound our natural with his very SUPERnatural. He loves the childlike wonder that provokes awe and a deep sense of His nearest and divine otherness. He wants to fill us with awe like a kid on Christmas morning. He helps us grow up and be like children.
