22 days ago, 76 year old Ironman Champ, Bob Knuckey was in Tucson's ICU hospital room. Today he went for a 5km power walk with his C3 team mates and even had energy to down an ice cream cone with his pals. 5 more weeks of rehab, then back to training for New Zealand Worlds.

The last time I saw a very young Triathlon Canada triathlete raced like this, was 25+ years ago with Simon Whitfield 20 year old Mathis Beaulieu bested all but Richard Murray today in Mexico to get a silver World Cup medal. He'll be perfect age for LA 2028 Olympic Games.

If anyone deserves to be going to The Olympic Games in Paris, it's Triathlon Canada hard working Dominika Jamnicky She coaches youth triathletes, got her chiropractic degree, all the time training and racing at the highest level. Sending best wishes for a big race in Mexico for the star

Look at the difference in what we have been able to do at the C3 JamesDick Aggregates Beach in Caledon Village. The pictures are 10 years apart, but represent thousands of volunteer hours & 1/2 million of fundraising. We now have a world class place to swim-paddle-volleyball & more

Both world class Canadians had recent crashes. 2x Olympian Tyler Mislawchuk with a bit of bad luck in Japan & 4x Ironman Champ Bob Knuckey in Arizona. The 2 Canadian legends plan on being back & healthy for July (Paris Olympics for Tyler) and Dec (New Zealand 70.3 Worlds for Bob).

You never know how your emotions are going to change in 5 seconds. These 2 pictures of my late wife, Caron Shepley impacted me today. They were from 12 months ago at her dog fundraiser. Her spirit-smile & passion for others was infectious. I miss her so much.

A powerful day on Saturday at the grand opening of The Caron Shepley Dog park. Nearly $28k raised in Caron's name for animal charities. Big time thanks to Crump Naturals and Bold By Nature for their massive sponsorship and support. We are just over $130k away from $1 million

The T100 Triathlon World Tour and IRONMAN Triathlon know that Triathlon Canada superstar Tamara Jewett is a blistering fast runner of the bike for 21km. Today she ran 32:02 for 10k in one of Canada's biggest charity races. Just over 2min behind the winning male. Well done Tamara.

Sport is cruel. I have watched friends win the Olympics & crash at the Olympics. I have seen amazing athletes like Tyler Mislawchuk crash when he was in the best shape of his life. Yesterday's Yokohama Triathlon took out some great athletes in the blink of an eye Such a tight rope

So blessed to have had the greatest mom ever in my biological mom Pat Shepley (1944-2003) and to my step mom Joyce Shepley. Both these amazing women found the way to support my family in a most loving and supportive way. Happy MOTHERS DAY to all the mom's and mom figures.

Going to bed a 8pm EST so I can get up 4 hours later and watch the World Triathlon races in China, then grab a few hours shut-eye. before getting up for my wife's Charity Dog Fundraiser at the C3 JamesDick Aggregates Beach. Check out our epic space.

Now that the leafs are out of the playoffs. My 4x World Ironman Champ has no reason to stay in the Tucson Hospital with nothing to watch. Happy to say that Bob and his 8 broken ribs are headed home from Tucson back to Caledon later today to rehab at home. Safe travels champ.

It's awesome that curt harnett one of Canada's greatest ever Olympic cyclists is a big dog fan. We are only 1 day away from Saturday's paws4cause.ca fundraiser to honour my late wife and raise money for needy animal charities. We are at $835k and aiming for $ 1 million

So many people have worked on my wife's dog park grand opening set for Saturday. We are at $835k raised by Caron and her supporters with a goal of going over $ 1 million for dog and cat related charities. Pumped for Saturday's FundRaiser and Dog Park Grand Opening at 12 noon.

Spent the day yesterday picking up swag and goodies for Saturday's Paws 4 Cause fundraiser and the grand opening of the CARON SHEPLEY dog Park. You can still register or donate at paws4cause.ca

Just 4 more days till we officially open the CARON SHEPLEY dog park at the JamesDick Aggregates Beach in Caledon Village. Our goal is to make it Canada's best dog park. Thanks to Crump Naturals & Bold Canine for their amazing support of Caron's memory and animal fundraising.
