• Coaching myself to the Quebec Mega Trail 50K

  

  Like Lil’ Wayne, I’ve spent the past few weeks listening to myself. Listening to my body. Listening to what I know works for me. Listening to what I know I enjoy.

• Sulphur Springs 20K Recap: Cruise Control

  

  “Going for the podium?” This was the question on everyone’s minds. My friends Rob and Paul had won the 50K and 100K respectively the day before. Last year, we were 3rd, 4th and 5th in the 50K. Could the three of us sweep the most competitive distances at the 2024 event?
