I Still Can't Believe I

Sport That Consumed Me For Over Two Decades . . . Is Now Gone. Now It's Just Me. No Pressure, No Expectations, No Need To Be Fast, Good, Strong Or To Even Improve. Yet I Can't Let Go Of This Idea That I Always Need To Be More Than I Am. And It Is Eating Me Alive.

For 20 Years I've Had The Privilege Of Representing Canada Around The Globe... First On The Bike And Then On My Blades. The Experiences Have Shaped Me Into Who I Am Today.

With Athletes, It's Never Fully Understood The Level To Which We Push Ourselves. Especially In An Endurance Sport.

I Was, Without Exaggeration, A Delinquent Teenager.

The Struggle I Went Through Has Value.
