Welcome to the weekend, you fine people. This week was a bit of a blur of meetings, training and some recovery from a heavy volume weekend. Speaking of the weekend, I wanted to talk about the race I completed for the first time. I will never forget the moment when I heard about the Creemore… Read More…
Summer 2014 Playlist
Although I don’t train with music regularly, it is a huge part of my every day life. I am a commuter and the way I consume music is to arrive at a song I love and listen to it endlessly until I am so tired of the song that I can’t listen to it again… Read More…
How to Make a Training Plan (And Stick With It)
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).

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…

Triathlons: Tips from the Nuun Team

Race Report: 5 Peaks Heart Lake Trail Race
Let’s talk trail races, shall we? Last weekend, I did two races and both of them were different enough that I have split them into two posts. Saturday morning, I raced the 5 Peaks Heart Lake course in the Enduro distance which was 14 KM. It was a PERFECT day for racing. The weather was gorgeous, the… Read More…
Pain Tolerance and Athletes
Happy Monday! I am a little worse for wear after my weekend of fun, but I did warn you in Friday’s post that it may happen. I had such a fantastic weekend of racing, run groups, concerts and seeing friends that it felt like I put a whole week’s worth of things into two days…. Read More…
