My tri season started in Quebec in early June and it ended on Saturday in downtown Montreal. The results were actually the same, just a faster time. A good thing I guess, considering I should be getting better after my first full tri season.
The race is known as the Esprit which is held on the [...]

This is the last of the trail runs in the 5peaks series. I signed up for this last year and of course, it’s going to go out with a bang! This race is located on Mt. Orford; starting at the base of the mountain and going up, up and up! It says if it takes [...]

I Want To Beat Chrissie Wellington. That was my goal in March when I signed up for the Timberman 70.3 triathlon. To help with motivation, I cut a picture of her out of a tri mag and stuck it on the fridge (I actually did this for awhile but then I got a coupon for [...]
