“Lone Wolf”

2017: Day 9 Remember that time you were invited to a great party but you were the only one that showed up? Yeah, neither do I. But, sadly, Joanne F is quite familiar with it! Here’s how it went down. It started out as a great idea a couple years ago. She was going to be … [Read more…]

“50 ‘Shrooms”

December 11, 2017 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2017: Day 6 A funny thing happened on my birthday this year – Stephen King-like in its weirdness. No clowns were hiding in the gutters but something just as peculiar occurred. It started out like any other swim morning in our small town of Ladner. (See, it starts like a Stephen King novel). I got … [Read more…]

“Light it Up”

2016: Day 5 “She believed she could, so she did”. Tonight we celebrate our good friend Sarah. We met Sarah a little over a year ago when spinning in Tammi’s garage.

“The Pact”

December 4, 2016 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2016: Day 2 In 2016, we got to know Stelvis. And the story goes a little something like this. About 6 years ago I was having a ‘life goals lunch’ with a long-time friend and colleague, Stacey. Life goals range from personal objectives to career objectives. Goal setting is a habit of successful people and … [Read more…]

“Epic Rain”

December 16, 2015 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2015: Day 9 Day 9 of the 12DOD remembers some of the epic rides we had this year. Not epic because we had a great ride though. Epic because of the rain!!! We had one of our first training rides this year in Whistler in mid-May. I was super excited because this was the first … [Read more…]

“Get Ugly”

December 7, 2015 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

Continuing with our tradition of celebrating people and events this past year, Day 5 of our 12 Days of Drinking we celebrate a rather remarkable achievement by local hero (and legend in the making) Jeff Symonds. What he did in Kona was our pick for top triathlon story in 2015. For those unfamiliar with the sport, … [Read more…]

“Ironman Recovery”

December 5, 2015 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2015: Day 3 Day 3 of the 12 DOD is a thing of beauty. Today we celebrate the first time Ironman and iron distance finishers. Anyone who has watched an Ironman event in person knows how inspirational and touching it can be. Accidentally stumbling across it in Penticton 20ish years ago planted the seed for … [Read more…]

“The Broken Derailleur”

December 19, 2014 by lchamaschuk Leave a Comment

2014: Day 9 When looking back at 2014, there were a LOT of special and amazing moments. Who gets up on any given morning and suddenly decides (and has the ability) to run a marathon to help out some friends? Tammi M and Barton P do. But the most memorable story of the year belongs to Dan … [Read more…]
