However, when the king decided to ally with the increasingly powerful state of Qin, Qu was banished for opposing the alliance; he was accused of treason.[6] During his exile, Qu Yuan wrote a great deal of poetry, for which he is now remembered. Twenty-eight years later, Qin captured Ying, the capital of Chu. In despair, Qu Yuan committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.</p> <p>It is said that the local people, who admired him, dropped sticky rice triangles wrapped in bamboo leaves into the river to feed the fish. The rice was wrapped so that fish would not eat Qu Yuan’s body and eat the rice instead.[6] This is said to be the origin of zongzi. The local people were also said to have paddled out on boats, either to scare the fish away or to retrieve his body. This is said to be the origin of dragon boat racing.</p>http://hlbr.tumblr.com/post/52844713846http://hlbr.tumblr.com/post/52844713846Thu, 13 Jun 2013 00:15:41 -0400dragon boatdragonboatfitblrfitnesshealthduanwuqu yuandragon boat racesfestivaloriginWednesdays are my true abilities test. 8 hour day out in the field, 30 min to prep, then off to...http://hlbr.tumblr.com/post/52826228693http://hlbr.tumblr.com/post/52826228693Wed, 12 Jun 2013 19:53:10 -0400dragon boatdragonboatfitblrfitnesshealthwatersportpaddling<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ec28bf28401f3a72b21d43f688d20b10/tumblr_mo9dgc5ivM1qcm6qso1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d24d6b3d2555982eaa2031156919622a/tumblr_mo9dgc5ivM1qcm6qso2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Target practice… I don’t drink soda!</p>http://hlbr.tumblr.com/post/52758577314http://hlbr.tumblr.com/post/52758577314Tue, 11 Jun 2013 22:26:36 -0400fitblrfitnesshealthdont drink sodasoda is freakin bad for you<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/8e3481c4b0ae554ee6bf0b8c18749048/tumblr_mo91a8OILV1qejq5xo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://pro-gress.tumblr.com/post/52740273523/comfort-food-strawberries-blueberries-and-almond" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">pro-gress</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>Comfort food: strawberries, blueberries and almond milk. </p> <p>Also I’ve discovered grapefruit orange juice.
