Fast Trax 50K

Jun 19, 2012

I ran the Fast trax 50k last Saturday at Gold bar park.   This is a great local event put on by Jack Cook and his crew from his run and ski shop.    This was the second year I have ran this event (last year I did the 30k), and it was great to see the numbe…



This was said to me by someone at the gym after I had finished a run on the treadmill and kicked off my shoes and spent a few laps walking around the track to cool down. This got my brain working around the issue of barefoot and shod debate.   A few thoug…


Long Day

Aug 30, 2011

Raced Ironman Canada yesterday.   This may have been one of my toughest days on a race course yet. The goal is always the same for me barring conditions, have a personal best and no injuries.   In 2009 I came in at 10hrs and 8min.   For this year I would …

It was quite a roller coaster ride up to the Death Race.  Our team, made up of Graham Glennie, Arri McWatt and myself, as team ST. Albert Physio, were going to run the 5 legs, just the three of us.  After my bad experience at Coeur d’Alene Ironman, I had a…


Inov 8

Aug 09, 2011

I discovered the Inov 8 brand of trail shoes about 4 years ago, since that time I have worn a number of shoes from there line. Inov 8 footwear takes a minimalist approach to their footwear.    Throughout there line of footwear they maintain this philosoph…

Look Ma no shoes!

Jan 15, 2011

Ran on the treadmill (would run outside but snow and -25) today for 4miles in my barefoot shoes (terra plana).  this has been my longest run yet.   Normally I run at a fairly conservative pace but today I upped it for 2 miles (6:50). Feet and legs feel gre…


Yoga

Dec 13, 2010

Last week began my return to hot yoga.   For some reason it is always the thing that if I am tight for time during the week I skip.   This is frustrating for me since, I always feel stronger and faster during training when I incorporate it into my training…
