The Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon will always have a soft spot in my heart. It was my very first marathon and if you want to have a perfect guide of what NOT to do, you can read my recap from 2013. This year is a special year because although I have ran it almost every… Read More…
Why I am Grateful I Was Injured This Summer
Is blogging even a thing any more? I always said I would keep up blogging as long as I loved it. What I wasn’t anticipating is that I would stop having time for it. Let me rephrase that differently – where I stopped making it priority, even though I loved it. I will always love… Read More…
Why I am LIVING for the Smith Optics Ruckus
I’ve spent almost my entire sporting career searching for the right sunglasses. The entryway to my apartment has a rack with no less than 15 pairs of all colours, shapes and sizes to match to different sports, colours of lycra and time of day. I had given up on the idea of having that Goldilocks… Read More…
Test Run: The Castelli Rosso Corsa Donna
There is nothing better as a cyclist than New Kit Day. (Well, except maybe new bike day). Hours and hours on the saddle probably means that you wore down your other cycling chamois and so stepping into fresh lycra feels like sitting on a cloud. You can put out more watts when you pedal and… Read More…
Biking in Spring Weather
I find as a Canadian, that the moment that spring hits, I am out the door with a vengeance. My bike trainer is neglected, my helmet is dusted off and as long as it is above zero Celsius, I will tell myself that it really isn’t “that bad.” Because it is light after 5 PM, I… Read More…
Training Camp Nutrition
I have received a number of questions on the cycling training camp I was at earlier this month in North Carolina. We were training anywhere from 2-8 hours a day and I ended the week with almost 700 KM of cycling and 1000s of m of climbing elevation. After a few years of stage races,… Read More…
I gave up lattes for 6 weeks…
At the beginning of 2019, I joined Limitless Performance, one of my sponsors in their New Year, Best You challenge. I will be honest – I have never done a challenge like this before and I had my reasons. One – if it feels like a cliche, I am uninterested and what is MORE cliche… Read More…
First Official Month of Triathlon Training in 2019
It is exactly a month to the day that I left my off season and started training for triathlon season again. This is also my first training related post of the year so I wanted to take a moment to talk about my partners for 2019. New Balance – I have renewed my contract for… Read More…
Day in the Life – Adam Dejong
Day in the life posts have always fascinated me. I find it is the simplest way to get to the heart of who a person is and what matters to them. Although I have deviated from it occasionally, it remains my favourite way to interview a person on the blog. You can see a past example… Read More…
New Year, Same Me (But Better)
How the heck was your first week of 2019? I was loving all of the goal setting (and those of you who are totally against it) on my social media feeds over the past week. No matter where you land on the matter, I think that we can all agree that improvement is a good… Read More…
