Junior Knights AA-Jack Made It!!


It's been a long road but he finally made it! Last year Jack's hopes were crashed when he got cut from the AAA team and then crashed and burned in the AA tryout. This year he's been strong in all the skates except for one and tonight he finally got the good news. We are so proud of both the accomplishment and the determination he has shown over the past couple of weeks.

2.5 km run, 5 min rest, 2.5 km run

Did my warm up and started to run. I was still very stiff from the lunges the other day and my hips, thighs and hammies were all wonky. I ended up running for 12 min at a moderate intensity...rested and returned. Not a good result based on the goal effort but at least I was out there.

All Work and no play makes Mike a dull boy!! Play on!

Back from Camping Trip



Dave game me some workouts to do while I was away. They were short and concise just to keep me from getting stale. But I skipped them because I carried almost all the gear for this trip over all the portages and it was more challenging that what was laid out for me. I assumed this would be ok?
