About Me: I have always enjoyed running, but usually as training for something else. In 2017 I did a couple of longer trail races and really enjoyed them. I still mix things up with a bit of mountain biking and cyclocross but running has kind of taken over.
Sports: Running, cyclocross, mountain biking, XC skiing
Athletic Goals: 2022 goals - sub 24hr Iron Horse Ultra 100mile
My most catastrophic racing experience was: None yet, touch wood.
My most memorable racing experience was: Whistler Alpine Meadows 55k 2018 - Feeling like I was barely moving, my quads killing me, as I finished the last km up Whistler Mountain after 3 hours of climbing, but still only 13km into the race - good times. Bromont Ultra 80k was pretty cool too.
Favourite Racing Gear: Shoes - Hoka Speedgoat 5 for trail, Hoka Bondi for road
Favourite Race: Pick your Poison
Favourite Race Food: Hammer Perpetuem for during, Hammer Recoverite for after. I have used Hammer Nutrition for years, they have a full range of stuff for before/during/after as well as great supplements.
