Charles at Pacific Grove

Last weekend saw Charles racing Pacific Grove taking 7th overall (2nd AG) in a time of 2:06:12. Check out his race report below:

Pacific Grove Triathlon was a huge focus race for me this year. Going into the weekend I was fit and looking to finish top 3 overall. I knew there would be many strong competitors and it was going to take a perfect race to get me up there.

Ironman Canada

IMC 2010 Race report

Going into this race was a little bit bitter sweet for me. The season had been really good to me with some great results early on and training was going well. However, the family had been thru some rough times in the month of August as two of my grandparents passed away; Frank Marvin early in the month and Shirley Frederickson on the Tuesday of race week. It was a little difficult to reconcile the intense focus I’ve had for nearly a year on my training and this one event with the emotions and struggles of the loss. Each had been so supportive of my goals and focus on the sport that I knew in their memory laid the strength I needed to succeed, so I made myself some reminders of why I was out there to carry me (and them) thru the day.
