Thank GOD I found this clip this morning cause the funniest thing I’d seen in the last seven days prior to this was just slightly disturbing and I wasn’t really sure about posting it on here…instead…MONKEYS!!

AHH, I LOVE new gear!! Just got my brand new Montrail Rockridge and 2010 Mountain Masochist (no changes from 09 version), and CAN’T WAIT TO TEST DRIVE EM!! Unfortunately I have to stay smart and rest my calf. It feels much better today with the tightness not setting in until mid-day. I’m out the door… →

Had to post this real quick, check out these links, and here’s the info off his site: Marathon running is not easy at the best of times. Running a marathon every day for 99 days is mindblowing. Throw in running barefoot and you have a distance running challenge of epic proportions. This video is about… →

Although I’m sure funny clips are better served on a Monday, the alliteration just isn’t the same! I’m gonna try to post a quick clip each Friday that has made me laugh throughout the week. I love the creativity and spontaneity of this one. Never worked in an office but I would have guessed most… →

Tamsin, Roxy and I headed up to Squamish last night after work, and we managed to land ourselves a perfect evening for a mountain run. Check out the sunset pics. I was quite impressed as it made the journey well worthwhile. The 22km route takes you back to the Elfin Lakes area which is complete… →

(I could have used Roxy’s nav skills on the O stage!) I was surprised in the days and then hours leading up to The MOMAR at how calm I was. Whenever I raced with Todd and even during my solo venture in Squamish back in May, I got pretty uptight and stressed about things until… →

I was out kayak racing last night and thinking about my race report while trying not to puke on myself in the boat. I realized a few things, mainly that I have probably made this all sound a bit too easy so far. Yes we instituted and followed a great race plan, which I believe… →

If you didn’t take the time to look at the entire six day race profile in advance of day one, and strategize around what you saw, then day five would surely be about the time when your body started dropping incessant f-bombs on you. The final two days just happened to have the largest climbs… →
