On August 30, 2010 Gary Robbins set out to complete the 80km West Coast Trail in record time. 10 hours 8 minutes and 49 seconds after setting off he arrived at his destination and was crowned the new WCT speed record holder.

XS-NRG Film Review
Produced by Shay Wilson and Angus McLellan, XS-NRG captures not only the extreme difficulty of ultra-running, but also the beauty of Canada’s Sunshine Coast. The film follows four ultra runners from British Columbia as they attempt to complete the entire 180km Sunshine Coast Trail non-stop. The opening few minutes display the majestic wilderness of the Sunshine Coast and the tension that exists between preservation of this landscape and the human need for timber and other resources....
Record breaking run at Creemore 100 miler
The Creemore Horizontal 100 mile race evolved due to some unusual circumstances. Monica Scholz decided that in 2010, she would break her own world record, for the most 100 mile races in a calendar year. The call went out that Monica was looking for a 100 mile race in late November, preferably close to home. It seemed a relatively simple mandate: Organize a 100 mile race on November 27/28, somewhere in Ontario. If you want to brighten the day of a city official, ask if you can run a 5 to...
Gear: Asics gel arctic
Running in the winter in Canada has always been rather difficult. One day there’s snow and the next day it thaws and then freezes into a sheet of ice. Tackle the trails and the challenges are compounded as knee deep snow can turn into ankle deep slush with ice below just metres apart on the trail. Over the years there have been various inventions to combat these winter challenges – homemade spikes in the bottom of shoes, store bought spikes, cross-country spikes, shoe attachments...
Gord’s Frozen Ass Fifty 2011
Gord’s Frozen Ass 50k race took place on Alberta’s Family Day Monday February 21, 2011 under beautiful sunny skies and relatively balmy weather. To be honest this race confirms the degree of addiction that runners have to their sport. What else could convince over one hundred, otherwise sane people, to agree to running 25k or 50k along a flat path in the middle of February in Calgary? But, the fortunate part is that when all of us strange running souls get together the world changes. All...
Gear Review: Merrell Trail Glove
Barefoot runner Neil Zeller from Calgary reviews the Merrell Trail Glove. So I received my pair of Merrell Barefoot Trail Glove minimal shoes on Thursday and ran 25km in them on Sunday. Is that smart? Probably not, but with my trust in my running style (light, easy, smooth, quick) I felt like I could give them a go. I did wear them pretty much exclusively from the moment I got them right up to the race, but I did pack my Vibrams in my North Face hydration pack just in case I hated the...
