  • SURVIVED: Training 3 Day Adventure Completed

    I survived! DAY ONE: 88km (Eugina to Collingwood) I started off this day on the right foot as my trainer, Cathy Gallagher, ran the first 6 hours with me to keep me on track. Big hills and a blister early on reminded us to respect Bruce and keep a slow but steady pace. Cathy paced…

    Coming off a long heavy training week consisting of  mountain climbing/running (at Blue Mountain), mountain biking and long trail runs.

  • Bruce: 1, Virginia: 0

    Another training day. Trying to piggy back workouts right after one another. Bruce won this day – it gave me a good butt kicking thanks to a ungraceful fall in a puddle. OUCH! I got up, but quickly realized Bruce is no push over. 🙂

    Coming off the Bear Mountain 50 km Ultra Marathon in New York, I am sore and tired all over. That race was one of the toughest I have ever done due to the hills and rocky terrain. But, it tested my fitness level and mental toughness. I just reminded myself to suck it up. 🙂…
