Muskoka 70.3 Ironman Race Report

This past weekend (September 13th) I raced a half-iron in beautiful Huntsville, ONT. Huntsville lies about 220km North of Toronto in the lake district of Muskoka.



The race was held out at Deerhurst Golf Resort in perfect racing weather, 20C with light wind.



Racing in just my second 70.3 I was ready to have another crack at this distance and improve upon my debut. The elite men set off at 8am for the 1.9k… Continue

Getting the Day Started Right

When I have a large day of training scheduled I often find it hard to get in enough calories for the days work. The best time I have found to get the bulk of the fuel in is first thing in morning before I start. Throughout the remainder of the day I will keep the portions smaller, snacklike, until training is finished and dinner time has arrived.



That being said, i'd like to share with you what I get up to nutrionally from when I wipe the sleep out of my eyes till when I start to… Continue

This Sunday marked the 20th Times Colonist 10k Run in Victoria, BC. With a record registration topping 14,000 runners and walkers the event was brimming with excitement as I neared the start line. The morning couldn't have been nicer either, about 10 degrees, Sun, and little wind.



The run begins in the cities downtown park, Beacon Hill Park, winding its way through the park towards the waterfront. Once by the water the run goes parallel to the ocean to the 4km mark turnaround and… Continue

I was in a bind for dinner a few days ago and put together what might be a west coast version...well sort of.



Makes a lot:



4 Cups Water

2 Cups Quinoa

Sea Salt

1.5 Cups Peas

4 Spring Onions

Vega Sport

I just received a trial of Vega Sport from Kelly this week and am pumped about the new product!

I have used it before tough workouts and have experienced great energy, no sugar crash, and best of all no intestinal or stomach issues. The lemon lime flavour is nice, not too sweet and has a hint of green tea, which I like.

Another great addition to the vega family!
