Tonight our special guest is Katie Rogers and we find out right away how Katie loves being involved in team sports and being part of a team. Katie wasn't really interested in working out alone so she did join a gym and enjoyed fitness classes. When Katie signed up for a boot camp that's when things started to get interesting. Her instructor suggested Katie try Triathlons and later she registered for the Hampton ladies Triathlon and started her journey of getting better at all the events. Katie loved it and was hooked, she loved the camaraderie and loved the support. The Mont Tremblant half Ironman was next on her list then the Chicago marathon and once Katie got going there was no stopping her. Katie talks about how she started swimming with proper technique and how she got started in the pool. We find out Katie started to cycle more and what led her to purchase her first road bike. Katie joined a cycling group and started riding casually and again things really took off from that point. Ridding for multiple days across the province and with a team name and a logo they were off. In the second year, they did a 9-day loop around N.B. just under 1000km and they were raising money for charity, amazing. Then we get into this year's tour titled "no one left behind". starting in Rothesay NB. and heading to Moncton, then to Charlottetown, Pictou, Sackville and back home. Covering all three Maritime provinces. This year's charities are Kids sport and Progress for mental health, wonderful charities and all of this is through the website Canada helps. There is lots more to this episode and we don't want to spoil it all here so go out for a walk, set up our podcast on your smartphone and listen to a very motivated Katie.
