"IronClive" is a nickname that was bestowed on me by wife Melissa after finishing Ironman USA on July 31, 2000. I thought it was sort of cute, so it's stuck.
Who am I?
Well, I don't really know what to say or how many details to provide. But in synopsis, I'm a Canadian living in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, a webmaster for CryptoLogic Inc.,and an avid ultra runner and an Ironman triathlete. I've completed 1 ultra run (50k) and 3 Ironman triathlons - Ironman Austria (2001) and Ironman USA (in 2000 and 2002) - in addition to numerous other triathlons, marathons, and other endurance events. With the birth of my first baby daughter (Abigail) in January 2003, I haven't had the time to properly devote myself to Ironman training so I've gone "old-school" and got back to my roots and first love - running. Ironman rocks, but it does tend to dull your running speed a bit. I want it back.
In 2005, I plan to peak for the Toronto Ultra 100k on May 1 and a fall marathon (probably the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon on September 25). Hoping to qualify for Boston in 2006 (need a sub-3:20 - I'll be 35 by then - ugh). I'll also be doing alot of races on the local running circuits - take a look at my race schedule for more info.
I hope you can find something interesting on this site that aids you in your development as an endurance athlete or life in general. And don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding anything on this website or if you just feel like it.
