And August is a goner. 🧡

This past month brought me incredible joy as much of what I’ve anticipated came to fruition.

I became an IRONMAN.
I watched one of my best friends marry the love of his life.

I read good books.
I had good food.
And I shared many tender moments.

Most of all, I took some time to smell the roses and do a little bit of nothing.

Things in life don’t have to be perfect. You just need to adjust your perspective so you can recognize the value in everything.

What’s next? More life.
I’ve been busy building Hybrid Heart Ottawa and I cannot wait for race day.

Pressure = Privilege🦉⚖️🦁🫗

Was gonna run with a shirt on until I saw Jake Pilon tarps off and had to match the energy.

Shoutout to Sean Sean Menezes / RaceCapture | Find Your Moment for the flicks. Sean is the only choice when it comes to race photos. His passion is undeniable. He’s incredibly friendly, positive, and he’s an IRONMAN, so you know he understands what it’s like to be on both sides of the lens.

Big shoutout to Anthony Balatti / The 25th Hour ® for putting on an incredible event. Over the last few years, Anthony has brought consistent love and dedication to his brand and community, and this event was a huge win for him.

This is exactly the sort of thing our great city needs: people who push to bring passion to life, from pen to paper to real world impact.

Seeing other community leaders in our city push programming to the next level is incredibly inspiring to me. The excitement I feel in my gut when I’m part of it only reassures me that I’m in the right place, and motivates me to keep putting more effort and love into helping my own community grow and prosper.

Congrats to everyone who ran their best, even if it was simply the best they had that day.

Life is about giving 100%, even if that only looks like 50% in the moment.

Don’t ever underestimate how much your life can change with a year or two of dedication.
