“I am multisport athlete – literally. I jump out of planes competitively (4-way formation skydiving), race in Ironman triathlons and winter biathlons. This past year was unusually and particularly challenging. I prepared for skydiving Provincial and National Championships as well as Ironman Canada all occurring within two months of each other. You can well imagine the duress (and abuse) imposed on my body. Nonetheless it all worked out in the end with a gold and silver medal at the skydiving events and a successful Ironman finish in brutally hot conditions. Quality recovery and immediate attention to the slightest physiological cues was essential to sustain such a demanding year-long training regime. Christine was an essential part of this. As an Ironman athlete and a sport injury specialist herself, Christine understands and can relate to high-end sport induced aches and pains and in turn delivers appropriately tailored treatments that actually produce results. |
As my training load increased particularly in the latter stages of my preparation I began to develop ITB issues, more pronounced plantar fasciitis issues, calf muscle issues, lower back tightness, you name it. Christine was always there to help sort me out. There were occasions when she accommodated me without hesitation outside of her normal work hours – once even “ordering” me in to her clinic – to promptly tackle the slightest acute problem that suddenly surfaced and that could potentially have impeded my next training sessions. This level of dedication and genuine care kept me injury free right through to Ironman. I also own an on-line triathlon coaching company and as such I want my brand to be associated with excellence. enduraHEALTH is part of my extended support team (EST). I urge anyone serious about their athletic training to make it part of theirs. Thanks Christine for all your hard work and never giving up on this shipwreck!”
