Seven Summits Race Kicked My Ass



While on a sales trip through the Kootenays, I decided to take part in the inaugural Seven Summits Trail Run held in Rossland, BC on September 1st.

I'll publish a detailed report of this epic event soon...

Gary Reed Wins 800m Silver at World Champs



Gary Reed (Victoria, BC) won the silver medal last Sunday at the World Track and Field Championships (Osaka, Japan).

Reed's medal performance was significant in that it was the first medal earned by a Canadian male in a distant event since 1964 (Tokyo Olympics).

Although Gary was only .01 seconds behind Alfred Yego (Kenya), he showed tremendous sportsmanship and an amazing attitude in his obvious happiness over winning the silver medal (rather than "losing" the gold).

Congratulations Gary!
