This year’s Squamish 50 was a race for the ages! 💦 There will never be another one like it. 🏊🏻‍♂️ I’ve made so many jokes about finishing 3rd this year to complete my podium sweep (1st in 2018 - 2nd in 2019), I guess I had it coming! 😝 I went out real hard because I thought I had it in me to do something real special this year 🔥! But the legs must have missed the memo. There was no magic in them for some reason. 🤷🏼‍♂️ But then again, there was a severe lack of river running in my training plan! 🤔 So I did what I do best, turned the volume up on my Audiobook and suffered like a champ! Really happy about a new personal best! (Also my best marathon time!) Infinite thanks to @bobbi.sawchyn & @jgrdeau for crewing in the rain. To @cecicchp for being my motivation, my support and my best friend in the world ❤️! To Sophie & Chris for housing us! And to everyone that tuned in to the race!

Squamish50 tomorrow! 🌧 Check out the live feed for updates. It’s bound to get silly out there in the deluge 🏊🏻‍♂️. But I’m preeetty sure I can do silly too. 🤪 Wish me luck!🤞🏻 #squamish50

Is it time to carb-up for the Squamish 50 yet?? …please? 🍰

Flying Friday to Squamish to compete in NCES Whistler (Ceci) 🚴🏼‍♀️ & Squamish50 (my 5th!) 🏃🏼 It’s been great to explore the surroundings of Castlegar with Zak, Ally & Chulilla; as we put the finishing touches on our training! Sure will miss this dynamic trio! ❤️

Without a winter

Year 3 in Nelson is a wrap! ❤️ Every year we establish deeper roots, new relationships and new Strava records 😝! Such a treat to get to spend summers here. Until next year! We miss you already!

Great weekend in Panorama, Bc! 🏃🏼Training is well underway for the Squamish 50 in October. The real challenge will be to keep it up during the last 3 weeks of work of the season! 👷🏼‍♂️

Fun hike today up Old Glory! Nice to peek some blue above the smoke. 💙

Proud moment! Felicidades Dani & Cetto! 🍾🎈🎉🎊

Wahoo!

Buy a new pair of shorts every 10 years. ☑️

Sometimes the only difference between a passion and an obsession is a smile. 😁

At this time last year Ceci wasn’t even allowed in Canada yet! 😭 But❗️Our 4 months apart provided me with a lifetime of blackmail-worthy photos! 😏 #worthit #noregrets

Catching some Summer in between contracts. ☀️

So long long hair! 👷🏼‍♂️ Out of the pot & into the furnace. Let the infernal Brushing season begin! 🥵

The Girl-Shaped Hope

Rocks skip down the dusty road. The boy is trailing his feet, hands forearm deep into his shorts’ pockets. Down the road, again. Who needs a home when a home is not a home? Who needs a son when a son is not a son? Someone has to be born the last straw, the boy […]

Confession #18 The Translator

I am a language few speak. Figuratively, I am. First, I’m a person. I should have started with that, no? As a person, I am a language few speak. There. I only became a translator by trade because, well, I was doing it anyway. Day in, day out. There are few of my ilk left […]
