Month: September 2018

Fitspeek 46 picks up where Fitspeek 45 left off, in a room full of Ironman finishers and Jen Burns. In this laugh and wisdom packed 45 minutes you’ll glean pearls of wisdom and silliness as our Iron Panel of Zack Neufeld, Kevin Watt, Leigh Ann Parker, Elise Reeh, and myself, answer a series of tough and revealing questions.

Also in this week’s Fitspeek, after a few weeks off, KW returns with social media shout outs, we have race results from Cultus Lake, and also the upcoming events schedule. Prepare for hilarity and press play below

And if you are like Jen and want to do your first Ironman, or your first marathon, fondo, or triathlon, we at Tri*Joy can help you out. We offer in-person consultations, effective and motivating training plans, and regular progress assessments, e-mail kknnheinze@yahoo.com to book a time for a consultation.

Just like previous Fitspeek guest Dave Matheson, Abbotsford’s Jen Burns wasn’t much into regular sports when she was in high school. Instead, she focused on high level dance for over a decade.

Now, a few years later Jen is getting into endurance sports in a big way. She had a great performance at the Whistler Half Ironman race in July and was so inspired that she signed up for the full Ironman for 2019. In our Fitspeek interview we find out about her hopes, plans, and fears for the year ahead.

Also in Fitspeek 45, we help you overcome pain and adversity in your next race by using mental file folders. Find out more on Zack Neufeld’s Between The Ears.

If you are ready to jump into the water for your first, or fastest triathlon, Tri*Joy can help you with one on one consultations, effective training programs, and regular progress assessments. E-mail kknnheinze@yahoo.com to get things started.

One of the new multisport events to hit our area is the swim/run. It’s sort of like a duathlon but you replace the bike with a swim. One of the folks who participated in the inaugural event held at Thetis Lake in August was Mission’s Jamie Imai.

In our interview we talk about the details of the course, her training for the event, and the cool gear associated with it. And of course, we need to know about her post-race beverage of choice!

And if you are interested in attempting this new funky sport, Tri*Joy can help you. We offer effective and doable workouts designed with your life realities in mind. With a low client to coach ratio, we offer you the one-on-one time that the big companies can’t! To set up an in-person consultation, e-mail kknnheinze@yahoo.com.
