Todd (one of my very best friends) and I were on a late summer long ride last year and we started talking about what we wanted to challenge ourselves with in 2016. Todd mentioned he was thinking of doing a half ironman. I had announced last year that I was planning on doing the Muskoka full,… Read More…
Recipe: Peanut Butter Protein Truffles
I have become a mad woman when it comes creating protein based food and I don’t hate it. Especially on weeks like this past one when I stumble across probably the most delicious recipe known to humankind. I was standing in my kitchen trying to figure out what to make for this weekend because I… Read More…
Fuelling with Protein for Endurance Events
Hey there! Fall is in full swing and this is always the busiest time of year for me at work. It is such a good thing that I decided to take an early off season or I would never see anyone ever. This past weekend, I headed to Toronto to pace the incredible Athletarian on… Read More…

Sweet Potatoes: The Sexiest Food in the Running World
I say it probably once a month, but there is a reason I am an athlete and not a chef. Presentation is not vital to me as long as it is delicious. I am also all about 2 or three ingredients constituting a meal so when I invite people over for dinner, I warn them… Read More…
Why I Work With a Naturopath
It happened. This is the first week where I am back to being a real runner again. My coach looked at my data and gave me my first speed session since August. As we speak, I am probably pounding my little heart out on a treadmill at GoodLife Fitness. I am beyond eager to dive… Read More…
The Village Juicery
I don’t know about you, but drinking enough fluids in the winter is HARD. Nothing makes me want to increase my coffee consumption like a nice -22 C day and my corner of the world has had quite a few of those lately. In the spirit of keeping my hydration levels up during winter, I… Read More…
Resource Wednesday: What To Do When Night Runger Hits
Oftentimes before bed, I will feel satisfied, if not a little hungry. I am one of those people who can eat moments after they open their eyes in the morning and I often have a small snack before my morning workout to keep me going. I am not a big fan of eating before heading… Read More…
