Schedule Post! :)

​First Blog Post!
 
Instead of looking too far back into what I’ve done over the last few months/year, I’m going to start my first blog post as a pre-curser to the upcoming summer of racing! 
 
Every day I’m getting more excited!  I can’t wait until my first race of the season in May.  I’m really pleased with how much solid training I’ve been able to do this winter, and how I’ve improved every day, and the difference I feel it making in all facets of triathlon.  I have started riding outside again with Coach Luke and the rest of the group, while doing lots of focused swimming and long runs.
 
I also had a Balance Point Assessment a couple of days ago, and despite some hard sessions the day before, I had some very positive results, showing a positive trend of improvement through my training.  Every one of the 2-hour assessments I’ve done have been such a huge help and become a real necessity in my training in order to know and understand how to train smarter, more efficiently, and ultimately race faster.   By determining my limiters and strengths, Luke helps me know how to make the changes I need.  I would highly recommend this Assessment as a baseline or measuring stick as you set your goals for the season!
 
Looking ahead to the summer, I have 8 races planned, including non-drafting local races, Provincial DL Series races, a Canadian Junior Elite DL race, and possibly even a road cycling race.
 
2016 Race Schedule:
  • Cherry Blossom Sprint Triathlon (May 1st)
  • North Shore Vancouver - BC Junior Elite Race Series #1 (May 23)
  • Hayman’s Classic Road Cycling Provincials (June 10-12)
  • Vernon Triathlon - BC Junior Elite Race Series #2 (June 26)
  • Peach Classic Sprint Triathlon (July 17th)
  • Kelowna Apple Triathlon - BC Junior Elite Race Series #3 (Aug. 20)
  • Edmonton ITU Junior Elite Triathlon - Canadian National Junior Elite Series Finale (Sept. 4)
  • Peachland Sprint Triathlon (Sept. 11th)
 
This schedule might sound a bit crazy, but I am absolutely looking forward to every one of those races, and love the training because it fuels my passion for triathlon!  It’s exhilarating to me to think about triathlons, watch triathlons, train for triathlons and most of all, race triathlons!  Can’t wait for the season to begin!
   
Thank-you for reading!!

    17 year-old Junior Elite Triathlete
    ​
    Ever since I can remember, I have loved doing sports and have tried soccer, skating, ballet, hockey, and swimming, but NOTHING compares to triathlon!  I not only love racing but everything that goes into training and preparing for all three events so that I am ready to push myself physically and mentally in a race, always striving to reach my goals.  I have been competing in Triathlons since I was 7 in KOS, and at the age of 12 qualified and competed in the AB summer games, placing 5th.  Two years ago, my family moved to Kelowna to pursue better training opportunities and we are so incredibly grateful to have found Balance Point Racing!  As a Junior Elite with aspirations of competing for Canada, I fully believe in BPR’s philosophy of ‘training with balance so you can race with passion’.   I love training under Luke Way and Andrew Sellars, alongside the rest of the BPR group, whether it is scaling some mountain on snowshoes, 3 hour structural rides in the rain, chasing KOM’s, grueling track sessions, or early morning swims at Gyro.  My heart races whenever I think of my next race – I just love it!:)
     
    Aside from triathlon, I enjoy being online for school, long trail runs or hikes, spending time at the lake, cheering for the Oilers, running my baking business, reading when I get a chance, and spending time with my friends and family.  Besides my triathlon dreams, I am hoping to pursue physiotherapy after High School.

    Long Term Goals
    • To continue to get stronger structurally in all three disciplines, so that I can keep improving every year.
    • Continue to chase my dream of becoming a Pro Elite ITU Triathlete, racing on the WTS circuit for Team Canada in pursuit of Worlds and the Olympics.
    • Progress, with my brothers, to the top level of the sport, while continuing to love what I do!:)
