Welcome to Monday! It was a weekend jam packed with running for me. I did the Creemore Vertical Challenge 25KM on Saturday morning (recap will be on the blog on Friday). It was a fantastic course and although it was a training run for me, I was excited to finish first female. Sunday, I spent… Read More…
Review: Garmin Forerunner 220
A couple of months ago, I set out on a bike ride and my faithful Garmin ForeRunner 305 would not wake up. I was deeply saddened because I had formed an almost emotional connection to the watch, especially as when I purchased it back in 2009 when I decided to start running, I bought it… Read More…
ZICO Recovery Popsicles
It is getting WARM out there! Heat training is something I adore because in my opinion, there is nothing more fun than getting a giant, stinging eyes, drip-down-your-back sweat on after a hard interval session which is exactly what happened this week at practice with my team. I came home and drank my regular recovery… Read More…
Yankee Springs/SKECHERS GOrun Ultra Review
Happy Friday! Hope everyone is excited for a rad weekend. I have a busy one as usual including getting the next couple months of programing from my personal trainer, checking out the new aquarium in Toronto, riding the course for my upcoming triathlon and of course, racing the RunWaterloo Classic. I am on #TeamDave and… Read More…
IRIS, Golf and the Happy Lens
After I shared my goals for June, I received a number of questions asking what new sport I was taking on? I had never really played golf before in my life and I thought what better way to learn than in a tournament?! Turns out, golf is not something that you can just wing and… Read More…
RIVAL frames – A Zeal Optics Review
Growing up as the daughter of a small business owner, I have a soft spot in my heart for the hometown feel when it comes to where I buy things. Whether it is the hole in the wall breakfast spot beside a chain restaurant, a Home Hardware store instead of a big box building supply… Read More…
The Summit Seeker Winner
Excerpt from The Summit Seeker: Everybody missed the first Easter. They were sleeping. Or in church. Or going about their business. But Mary was right there. She knew where to look. I love the part in the Bible where it says that Mary ran home that day from the tomb. After she told the disciples,… Read More…
Book Review: The Summit Seeker
When I read books, I often have a highlighter in my hand and I underline my favourite passages in a book. The Summit Seeker by Vanessa Runs is covered in neon. I “met” Vanessa online a number of years ago and I was absolutely blown away by her fearless free spirt. She and her partner gave… Read More…
A Perfect Shoe
One of the hardest things to find as a female athlete is proper shoes outside of running. Unfortunately, being an athlete doesn’t always pay all that much, which means I spend the bulk of my days in an office setting where it is expected that I do not show up in running shoes and spandex….

Zeal Sunglasses and Why I’m Not Cool
When it comes to fashion, if it is not functional, I will probably not wear it. I did my hair this morning, standing under a hand dryer positioned high on the wall at the varsity pool. I eat most of my dinners in running shoes and spandex because I’ve run in the house too hungry… Read More…
