Today's 10km classic was the race I was looking for. I went into this race hoping my body would be able to handle the tough 3.3km course, and it seemed to do just that. I was still a little further down the results list then I would have liked, but 14t...

Well 31:32 was my time from last year, and 30:30 was my goal for this year. I stopped the clock at 30:30.8.  That's pretty neat! I knew it was going to be a challenge to knock over a minute off my previous time, but looking at the results and seei...

Here are a few pics of the Canmore Nordic Centre pushing out Frozen Thunder over the last few days. Pretty exciting stuff! The CNC pushed a whole bunch of snow into a hole last spring and covered it with sawdust. And when I say a whole bunch, I mean a ...

This past weekend was quite enjoyable. Some easy training and hiking, lots of food, and some family time made up a great Thanksgiving weekend. My aunt Catrin and her mom came down to Canmore from Edmonton (and Wales) for a quick stay in Canmore. It was...

Two weeks ago (okay... three now) Emma and I headed up to Lake O'Hara with her parents and some good family friends. Lake O'Hara is one of my favorite running spots, there is endless terrain, incredible mountain views and it is easily accessible. Em...

This post has been a long time coming! After our return from Ontario, things got a little hectic around Canmore with big training weeks, camping adventures (next post!) and shutting down the Haig for the season. Now that all that is done, I have found ...
