Only in Montreal: McGill Olympic Club
The McGill Olympic Club was recently featured on City TV’s “Only in Montreal:”
Thanks to Matt Silver for being such a game host, and Joanna Fox for her excellent skills as well.
Punky Wood
Immediately after my last blog a whirlwind of bad luck and illness derailed my training.
Cue ego protecting rant.
Isolation
Inspiration coupled with motivation are the foundation blocks to the long distance game. If you are not inspired you are likely not motivated either.
Train for Boston With Us!
Happy New Year!
We had a great 2015 with 110 PBs in the club and a few more among those who are receiving private coaching.

Coach Blog: July 2015
More race-specific work in July. In a strange twist, we start with the national championships on the first weekend (Mel and Ryan) and then move to provincial championships later in the month.
Coach Blog: June 2015
We ended May on a high note competitively, with some solid results on the roads in Ottawa.
Coach Blog: May 2015

Coach Blog: April

Coach Blog: More PBs!!! (training March 16-30)

Coach Blog: Training March 9-15
Can we stop calling it Winter training yet? This week was much better in the weather department, with temps in the single digit minuses, and the sun coming out and melting a lot of the snow.
