My 2nd PhD paper was officially published in JASP today!
Sport performance takes training, and training takes recovery. We know the skills athletes use to enhance practice and performance, but what might it mean for an athlete to be skilled at recovery?

We've got some research in the works on WHY cycling is so popular amongst adults, but suffice it to say... YAY BIKES 🙌
🧠 According to new data from @StatCan_eng, the three most popular sports among Canadians were swimming, cycling, and running. It was reported that more than one-third of Canadians participated in swimming!

Have you heard about the plans to broadcast the women's race at #UCIgravelWorlds? There are none.
The UCI is providing footage of the #gravelworldschampionships race for the men, only.
app.globalcyclingnetwork.com… We have it! Sadly the women's is not being broadcasted so we cannot provide footage ☹️
So, @UCI_cycling is only broadcasting the men’s gravel world champs this weekend, not the women’s? Is this for real? Care to explain, UCI???

Crazy day on the bike! Raced in mud/trails like that a few times in my life, but usually for ~25km of XCO, not 105km of marathon. I thought the part of me that loved XCO died, but maybe it's that the XCO I loved (natural+raw tech) has migrated to a different discipline now
Silver for Haley Smith despite grim conditions at Snowshoe World Cup XCM!

Due to a navigation error, I double passed (but with apologetic friendliness) a fellow cyclist on the bike path today. He on his road bike, me on my MTB. On the second pass, he asked if my MTB was an e-bike...
The confidence boost I didn't know I needed 😎
Marathon National Champs! I’m very proud of @andrewlespy, and grateful for the honour of this beautiful jersey 🇨🇦
5th at Leadville 100 today. On paper that’s worse than last year’s 3rd BUT:
- I was 20 min faster this year
- PR’d all 11 major segments
Just a reminder that an objective result isn’t the only measure of success. Given my current form, today was a MAJOR win!
