It managed to snow during the week after I had kind of figured out my race route so Friday I headed back over to Nose Creek to check out the trails and see what was left of the snow. I got lucky there was only a tiny bit of the snow left from earlier in […]

Every fall the Calgary Roadrunners start their XC season with the River Park XC. It’s one of my favorites. I just love the river crossing part. However for a variety of reasons I have opted to not run most of the XC races. Instead for this one I chose to wade into the river and […]

Friday – March 25th The nice thing about a great workout on Thursday is having a rest day on Friday. It was a normal work day. Well sort of. I got to leave early for a Dr appointment, the dreaded annual physical. It was also a frosty day so I took some interesting photos on […]
