"when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along"

"...it’s a challenge every time we leave the dock but also because my daughters are up above me…somewhere! Mallory is my partner as we bring down the pyramid so it’s my job to get her down and back into shore....we’re all together as a family."

I dance my fear.
I dance my gratitude, and more gratitude.
I dance my “I deserve this-ness”.
I dance my ‘whee!’"

"I wanted to complete an Ironman before I turned 40..."

- Bonnie S. 

Race Report for Ironman Canada 
July 26, 2015
By: Bonnie Stewart


"I have trained for this Ironman Canada event for about four years. I knew I wanted to complete an Ironman before I turned 40 but I also knew I had a long road to get there. I started taking adult swim lessons to be a more efficient swimmer and after having two kids, I also had to get my fitness levels much higher plus shed a few pounds and figure out a way to balance my dream of becoming an Ironman with a busy life. Last year my dear friend Joy and I completed our first ever 1/2 Ironman distance race in Calgary, the 70.3. We were both ecstatic to accomplish such a feat. I knew once that race was done, I would for sure meet my goals of making my bucket list dream of completing Ironman Canada come true. We both signed up for the full Ironman the day after the 70.3. The excitement of completing the 1/2 distance pushed us forward to accomplish something not many people have or even want to. I've been told numerous times I am crazy and asked countless times why I would ever want to do such a thing."
