Why We Tri: Bracebridge Half Ironman
http://whywetri.blogspot.com/2009/08/bracebridge-half-ironman.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Speed in the swim, speed on the bike, speed on the run. Harder focussed training days. To say the least this race was adventurous and challenging and just not a great race for me, regardless of the result. The weather seemed ok for the swim and dispite some poor sighting on my behalf, I pulled through and was the 42nd person out of the water. I headed to the results board and to my surprise finished:. 2nd in my age group; 12/62 females; 57/190 total people. Connected through the...

Why We Tri: February 2009
http://whywetri.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 18, 2009. I was reading through our posts today and realized that we have never really explained how we became connected. Even though we do tend to eat quite a few). Training and coaching each other definitely has it's ups and downs. There are times when Evan is having a bad day, and I am able to pick him up or vice versa, however the problem comes when both of us reach lows. We try our best never to go to bed angry! Because we have each other! Evan Dietz and Deanne Hiscock. Feel free...

Thursday, September 17, 2009. Muskoka 70.3 Race Report. This past weekend was Ironman Muskoka 70.3 at Deerhurst Resort.

I also want to congratulate all of the competitors on their successes especially those first timers who conquered an extremely challenging course. Sara and Rob you guys rock! Your hard work and dedication has paid off! I entered this race with the desire...

Why We Tri: August 2009
http://whywetri.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 17, 2009. The Lake Ontario Swim Team hosted it's 2nd Annual fun Iron Distance Open water fun race this past Saturday in Oakville. Evan and I were very glad to be a part of this well organized fun event that saw over 35 people swim the 3.8 km in Lake Ontario. I was a little nervous/excited as this was my first ever swim in Lake Ontario as well as my first straight 3.8km. The water was a beautiful 70 degrees and the weather proved remarkable with hardly any wind. That's all for now. I have t...

Why We Tri: Lucky "13"??
http://whywetri.blogspot.com/2009/08/lucky-13-evans-bracebridge-report.html
Friday, August 14, 2009. Well, what can I say, this was a very memorable race, for many reasons. Not only was I very pleased with my race result, it was not easy given the weather conditions I had to deal with in the race. Very happy with my result. I have to thank Dee for helping me prepare for this race, both physically and mentally, as well as helping to prepare a nutrition schedule that seemed to work for me this day. :). Evan Dietz and Deanne Hiscock. August 16, 2009 at 12:13 AM. Onto the next one.

Wednesday, April 1, 2009. Around the Bay 30 K. Final Placing: 30/4922 (10th in age category). With all of this being said, I am left to consider this race to be a "safe" race rather than "go for it" race, where I could have left everything out on the course. Evan Dietz and Deanne Hiscock.

Why We Tri: June 2009
http://whywetri.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 21, 2009. What a weekend. Evan and I spent the weekend Officiating Triathlon races both in Guelph and Mississauga. The guelph Lake sprint and try-a-tri went over very well, minus the fact that we were water logged by the end of the day and pretty well covered in mud by the time we made it out of the field. Though officiating and not racing, this weekend was still on the top of the charts. Why we officiate tri? To experience and share the joys of each child, regardless of their ability! The f...

Thursday, November 13, 2008. 2008 Ends with a blast! World Championships 70.3. Evan Dietz and Deanne Hiscock. Sunday, November 2, 2008. Deanne's Ironman 70.3 World Championships Race Report. It's amazing how you can spend hour after hour, day after day, month after month preparing for something that seems to end within the blink of an eye. But that is exactly how it felt upon crossing the finish line of the Ironman World Championships 70.3 this past Saturday. My parents and sisters all watched the race t...
