What I Am Wearing Wednesday

What I Am Wearing Wednesday

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…

October Coffee Date

Heyo- welcome to Friday! Last week, I got a standard text from my adventure racing team mate, Brad Jennings.  As you can see, I never know if it is a training weekend, a race or a back country adventure with him. But after finding out that he wants to just go run one of the… Read More…

Laces and Lattes gets prAna’d

Full disclosure: I hate shopping. So when prAna shared an opportunity to try out some of their clothes for fall, I was delighted. This is an opportunity from my partnership with SweatPink.  I am a very picky consumer of clothing. I dislike shopping with the hatred of a thousand burning suns and when people visit… Read More…

Just for Colors and Don’t Miss the Magic

Whenever it reaches the end of the month, I always keep a close eye on the goals I made for the beginning of the month and do my best to knock anything outstanding off of the list. This month, it was reorganising my closet: pulling all of the colourful summer clothes out and loading up… Read More…

September Coffee Date

September Coffee Date

It was JUST summer but I am finally acknowledging that as September is closing out that fall is here and it is here to stay. I have some really exciting things planned for fall so I am not mad about it, I just am annoyed with the cold. So let’s get a hot cup of… Read More…

Coming To Terms With The Gender Divide

Sep21

Coming To Terms With The Gender Divide

When I first started adventure racing, I made three simple rules to follow during a race to prove I was strong enough to belong racing alongside my male counterparts: 1. I will not complain 2. I will not cry 3. I will not quit And so far, I have only kept one of them because… Read More…

August Coffee Date

Happy Monday friends! I had the best weekend! It looked a little like this: I started my Saturday morning at Dundas Valley 5 Peaks trail race with tiger pace duties. Me and a few other volunteers led the kids in a 1 KM and 3 KM race. Some of those kids are smoking fast! Because… Read More…

Time to Recover

A week before my half ironman, I was contacted by Recharge with Milk saying that I was selected to be one of their racers for one of their multisport series. After a while on the phone, we determined that the only race that would work with my training and racing schedule was the triathlon after the… Read More…

Why I Adventure Race

Why I Adventure Race

I have been getting a few emails about adventure racing lately asking why, how and what the heck I am doing. Since I just wrapped up my biggest one to date, venturing into the world of expedition length events, I thought it would be a good time to talk a little bit about why I… Read More…
