What was described as one of the toughest races ever by both Amanda Lohnes and Cliff Worden-Rogers, it was all they could do to finish the tough 5peaks race at Tremblant on Saturday. Both athletes put in a great effort, Amanda finishing 2nd (woman) and Cliff finishing 3rd (overall). The course had very little description [...] Most triathletes can’t do enough already. So why not work on your eyes! You’ll be the strongest sighter in the group. Is there age group awards who can see the best? Should be…. For almost a century, eye exercises have been promoted as a way to strengthen vision and ease nearsightedness and astigmatism, much [...] Borrowed from: Chuckie Vs Blog.

Now before anybody gets themselves in a tizzy, I must first assert that I am not talking about motorized drills like the kind they sell down at Home Depot, with batteries and bits and lengthy warning [...] Which one do you think really drives you?

While knocking off 9 minutes in a few months might have sounded a little overambitious, I was pretty sure that I [...] Pacing is always a problem when it comes to racing. Most people go out way to fast and crash. Or event worst, set unrealistic goals which they cannot not obtain. On Sunday I took the opportunity to lead the 1:40 pace group for the half-marathon. The speed works out to 4:44mins/k. Cruising speed [...] Great weekend for playing here in Otown. Under sunny skies on Saturday, over 30 athletes participated in the inargual Bytown 171 comprising of a 100K ride + 10K run (on Sunday another 40K ride + 21.1K run). The Worden-Rogers duo of TJ and Cliff, participated in this great charity with all proceeds ($20, [...] Here are some great tips from Ben Greenfield for avoiding gas build up.
