Happy Wednesday! In the spirit of November being a little blah and the fact that I am in my off season at the moment, there are less training posts and race recaps round these parts. I decided to have a little fun with it and when I received a few follow up emails with questions… Read More…
Polar Performance Report – October 2016
October was a weird month, training-wise. I know I have lost top end fitness because I have not done speed work since August. This is always frustrating to me to let go of hard earned fitness, but the good news is, if you keep a solid fitness base, you can snap it right back up… Read More…
Goals for November
October was such a fantastic month. I did my last big trip of the year. I did some travel for work. I ran the La Cloche Silhouette trail with friends. I also set some big goals.

Now that we have had time to process the race I figured it was high… Read More…
Why I am giving up some goals and not doing weighted squats
I have been taking a break from coaching for a month and half already with my off-season unofficially starting about a month ago. This is the first year I have chosen to take a break, rather than being forced into a break due to injury or unexpected life circumstances. The interesting thing I am finding… Read More…
Running Nova Scotia
Happy Wednesday, everyone! I just got back from travelling to the East coast for the first time to celebrate a friend’s wedding. It was a gorgeous place and the scenery was off the hook. I am finally starting to feel recovered to do more frequent workouts in my off season and I took full advantage… Read More…
Polar Performance Report – September 2016
As I mentioned in my last report, I took a break from coaching this month because it literally consisted of racing and recovering. It is crazy to know that the biggest races of my 2016 year are behind me, but it was a fantastic month. Distance covered: 1,018 KM Running: 265 km Cycling: 753 km… Read More…
