2018 Race Calendar
My plans for 2018 are starting to solidify. As I mentioned in a previous post my “A” race next year will once again be Ironman Mont Tremblant. I have been searching for a warmup race for a couple of weeks now. I settled on the 70.3 race in Muskoka on July 8th. It will be a new experience as not only have I never raced that event, but I have not even watched anyone else at that particular race. I looked at the course online and attempted to compare it to Mont Tremblant. I was surprised to find that the bike course is almost as hilly as Tremblant. The difference is that Muskoka seems to have smaller, but more frequent hills. I will have to ride the course for practice in the spring.
My knee pain is back once again. It is tough to isolate just what is causing the pain. With so many varying types of workouts it could be anything, or a combination of all of them. I will need to make another physiotherapy appointment to get myself fixed up once again. I keep telling myself that age has nothing to do with it.
The release of my book has been exciting. I have been signing a number of books for friends and family. It seems I will have a good number of people at the Chapters event on November 18th. I have a similar signing opportunity at the hospital as well. I am thinking through an event where the proceeds will go back to the hospital. I also have my eye on a boutique bookstore in downtown Kingston.
See you at the next finish line….
