visualization

Since Katiki has recently spent the past 3 months of "free time" composing her thesis, she has regretfully missed crucial cycling season training blocks designed exclusively by Zeus (the god of thunder). In attempt to keep Katiki on the podium at all costs, Tiki has recently stepped in by studying the art of motivational speaking and the power of hypnosis. The precise volume, intensity, and timing of these visualization exercises have replaced Joe Friel's periodization model, with lore of christian science, patriarchal societies, hegemonic masculinity, and exploitation of women world wide. Here is an blurp from a recent exercise:



"Katiki.. I just received confirmation from vice president Joe Biden that there is a clause in the new health care package that mandates women below the poverty line receive the HPV cervical cancer vaccination across their life span! This makes you very sultry! Feel the burning in your legs... that is the burning of millions of under paid and overly oppressed women. Rick Perry finally got his wish... or at least the first part of it... you see there is more to this. I hate to inform you but the year 2012 is only months away. Mayan deities have predicted the end of human kind! And more shocking, a documentary film called 2012 has been recently released and is floating around the black market as well as Blockbuster and Netflix. This documentary was filmed by christian scientists who were able to travel back in time to warn us of our eventual demise. Upon personal interview with a number of these scientists, I have confirmed that there is an space vessel being built in China by exploited Chinese sex workers (mostly women). Shocking still, there are only enough room for wealthy American men upon this spaceship. Feel the angry blood pump through your arteries! Each pump of your heart represents another sexist remark from a TXBRA racing official, and as your heart beats faster, you begin to hear the voice of Moses teasing you, "I only put male animals on my biblical arch because they are more handsome than females". More twists and turns, the spaceship is composed of genetically modified cloned versions of Meow Pataw! Somehow, millions of Meow Pataws have been raised in test tubes only to be tortured and melted into space luxury. The present... the Apocalypse is in your hands. I just spoke to Hu Jintao, the Paramount leader of the People's Republic of China and he said that only you can stop the madness. In fact, if you win this race, Dr. Jintao has offered to release a secret ancient Chinese formula that will help stop the world wide AIDS epidemic! Only if you win here today can huMANity be saved. Ride strong like buffalo, smart like owl, cute like fox, and fast like GIRL! God speed young warrior."
