In this episode of the Consummate Athlete Podcast, we chat with John Shep, a teacher, ultrarunner, and host of the Athletics Ontario Running Podcast, who recently accomplished the incredible feat of completing the Triple Crown of Ontario—three grueling 100-mile races: Sulfur Springs, Halliburton, and Tally in the Valley.
John discusses the importance of local racing, community support, and his favorite (and hardest) moments from the Triple Crown. John also opens up about a recent, terrifying experience of being hit by a car while out on a run, which leads us into an important conversation about runner safety.

In this episode of the Consummate Athlete Podcast, we tackle two important questions for masters cyclists about racing, category upgrades, and the evolution of athletic goals as we get older. Coach Peter Glassford and Author Molly Hurford dive into the nuances of choosing the right race category and balancing performance with life priorities.
First, we answer a listener's dilemma: Should you race in a category where you can build confidence and work on race craft, or should you jump into a tougher and/or longer race category? We discuss how to weigh factors like race duration, speed, and even how family and race scheduling might influence your decision.
Next, we explore the question of how to approach racing during life's transitions, especially as you get older. We discuss how several clients have balanced aging and racing. We also discuss how you can use 'events' and 'challenges' as well as a reduced race calendar to help keep cycling in your life the idea that you can certainly enter events with different goals and refine how many races you do in a season as well as what constitutes an event (e.g. bike packing or tours).

Join Peter and Molly as they dive into the appeal of taking on last-minute, end-of-season endurance adventures—whether it’s a big race, a challenging ride, or an epic endurance event. They share real-life examples from clients and explore how factors like sport, distance, and terrain, along with your current training, influence the risk of these spontaneous challenges. They also discuss the importance of understanding why you’re drawn to the challenge and offer strategies for tackling similar goals with less risk by planning for something 4-8 weeks down the road that still satisfies your craving for adventure.

Join Peter and Molly as they discuss training strategies for the fall season—the period after your major "A" races when you may not have a specific goal on the horizon. They explore how your current motivation, injury, illness and life can influence the training you do. The episode highlights how, despite appearances, time before your next objective is limited due to upcoming winter conditions and the busy family and work lives many masters endurance athletes lead.
