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…
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…
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…
Test Run Tuesday: Oakley Flight Jacket Sunglasses
I have a confession. I am addicted to sunglasses. I have a hanging rack by my front door full of every colour, shape and size. I had a beloved pair of Oakley Jawbreakers (as 99.9% of the cycling population does), but when I spotted the Flight Jackets, I knew I needed them. I ride with an… Read More…
On Being Cold and an Icebreaker GIVEAWAY
I am still wrapping my head around the New York City Marathon. I have a full post that will be released later this week, but I wanted to check in today to chat about the fact that when I arrived back home from NYC (which was tank top temperature for most of the time), it… Read More…
Test Run Tuesday – Craft Sportswear
I introduced a new feature last month where I created a space where I can offer up a test for some of the new products I am trying these days. If I have learned anything in my training, it is that testing product is key if you want to be successful. I do not race… Read More…
PhysioReady – The Physio on Your Phone
The last few weeks, I have been slowly increasing my mileage and I’ve been walking (running) the line between excitement and terror. Let me explain. I became a multi-sport athlete for the same reason many do. Because when I was only running, I was riddled with injuries so having a few other sports in my… Read More…
Test Run Tuesday – FIG Clothing
Ok. Can we talk about the Mont Tremblant Ironman really quickly? This weekend, I was doing a 100 KM cycling tour with my dad and was absolutely glued to my phone at the rest stops to see how Mark was doing. You guys – he did his second ironman, finished in the top 20 and… Read More…
Open Letter to My Female Competitors
Dear Female Competitor, You are both the thorn in my side and the best thing for my sport. Nothing makes me more fearful on a start line then to see your feet match up to mine and knowing that you are going to give me an honest race. At the same time, I couldn’t be… Read More…
