NEWS BRIEF: Two Canadian Gals Participate in Cycling Challenge

Austin, Texas
October 26, 2010

This weekend, just over 5,400 people from 10 countries participated in the Lance Armstrong Challenge to fight cancer. Participants chose to walk, run, or cycle distances of 5km, 20 miles, 45 miles, 65 miles or 90 miles and through the generosity of their sponsors raised $3.1 million toward the fight against cancer. Staff reporter, Liv Strong, caught up with two gals, Sifu Claire Finnamore, and Sihing Julie Lilienskold, who travelled all the way from Stony Plain, Alberta, Canada to participate in this amazing event.

Liv: You all gals came all the way from Canada!!! That has to be the farthest anyone's come to ride in Austin.

Julie: I think so. But we flew down. There were 36 riders that cycled down from Vancouver. And we met some cyclists from Toronto and Calgary.

Liv: So how many miles did you all ride?

Claire: We participated in the 65 mile ride, which in Canadian, translates to about 103km.

Liv: A Hundred and three kilometers!! Are you all crazy? There couldn't have been many that were insane enough to go that distance!

Julie: Just under half of the 3100 cyclists did 65 miles or more, actually.

Liv: Well how long did that take you all to finish?

Claire: It took us 7.5 hours, and we definitely finished at the back of the pack. but that's not the point. We were there to spend the day cycling, to enjoy the event and the people, and the feeling of being a part of a worthwhile cause.

Julie: It was great, being a part of a health-care movement and a catalyst for better cancer care and education across the globe. Did you know that this movement has pioneered programs around the world for survivors; worked to unify the fractured cancer community; and instigated a worldwide crusade which includes the United Nations and the Clinton Global Initiative to make the world's No. 1 Killer a health-care priority?

Claire: And being amongst so many people: survivors, activists, supporters, and patients. It was really a great feeling. And so inspiring to be meet people who, after being so sick, or losing husbands, wives, sons, mothers, best friends and heroes - they still had such strength and determination to fight back.

Julie: The teams were really amazing. I met one group of young guys. Every year for the last three years, they ride in memory of their buddy's father. Can you imagine the empowerment that kind of support gives to someone who loses a loved-one to cancer?

Claire: And to cancer patients??? I met a team of about 12 walkers who were pushing a cancer patient in a wheelchair for the 5km walk. Can you imagine the amount of 'fight' that can inject into someone? Being surrounded not only by 12 people who really want you there, and also by thousands of others fighting back too.

Liv: Tell me about the actual route you rode. What did you all like best about it?

Claire: Well, it was all out in the back country roads. Very hilly but incredibly peaceful. I loved the warm humid breeze, the smell of cedar, hearing chickens and roosters as we passed family dwellings. The county sherrifs waiting patiently by his vehicle to direct traffic as the cyclists made their way along the route. The cactus plants and the scenery. That's the thing: this wasn't a race - it was an opportunity to live in the moment.

Julie: I guess that's part of the reason we came in close the back of the pack. We weren't worried about how fast we could speed down the hills, or how hard the next hill was going to be. We just took our time and enjoyed what was right in front of us. Like the armadillo that tried to cross the road. I'm not sure how many of us actually saw that armadillo, but I'm so glad I got the chance to see one up close. He scurried back to the side of the road pretty quick and I was so relieved that he didn't become another Texas speed bump.

Liv: Well I'm so glad it was such a positive experience. Thanks for taking the time to talk with me. And, you all come back next year, you hear?

Claire: Absolutely!!

Julie: Without a doubt.

Liv: LIVESTRONG!

Living Hero

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'm proud that Silent River Kung Fu supports SCARS (Second Chance Animal Rescue Society).

I've had a chance over the last month to get to know about SCARS up close and personal. We are adopting a puppy from SCARS, after a year of going without one in our family. We've had three dogs: Bob was a really dumb dalmation - we had him for 16 years; Joe came from the SPCA and was very smart - we had him for 18 years; our last dog, Roxy, also came from the SPCA and though she was an incredible escape artist, and loved to herd anything that moved, including cows, llammas and Great Danes, we kept her safe for 7 years until she went after a pack of coyotes and never came back. We consider ourselves pretty responsible dog owners, with an excellent track record. As a family, we treat our pets as one of us, and so the dogs have had the run of the house, and have been included in our conversations. When we signed up with SCARS to adopt an eight week old puppy, we didn't expect too much trouble.

Then we met Deb.

Deb is a full time,hard-core volunteer for the non-profit society and dedicates close to 40 hours a week contributing to the well-being of the animals that are rescued by other SCARS volunteers. Deb is very much involved in the administrative duties required to keep the society running, and she also fosters some of the most wounded and broken dogs herself. It involves taking the dogs into her home, spending alot of time visiting the vet, and alot of love and patience as she and her family rehabilitate the dogs so that they can be adopted. Within a span of five years, her devoted family of five has fostered over 90 dogs.

But you have to meet this lady, to get the full picture. I first spoke to Deb on the phone when she interviewed us prior to allowing us to be considered as eligible to adopt one of the puppies that she was caring for in her home. Deb didn't like what she heard and was not sure that we were suitable potential dog owners. The thing that bothered her was that we had admitted that both Bert and I worked full time, and our daughter at home attended full time schooling. Deb didn't feel that the puppy would get the attention it required during the first six months of its life. She was worried about pee schedules, and the puppy getting lonely.

Bert and I were taken aback. We've had three happy dogs; two died of old age. Our home is set up for dogs - with a large dog-run, fancy new insulated dog house, lots of space in the house and outside, a llamma and 3 goats to talk to, and even a stupid 7 year old turkey to harrass. WE ARE GOOD DOG OWNERS!!! We figured that Deb was taking her mission a little too seriously - a bit of a fanatic. Perhaps a little socially inept. A little 'High on Her Horse'. Some sort of crusader. But we bit our lips, worked something out with Deb, and she agreed to let us meet our puppy the next week.

Deb lives in a smallish house in Edmonton. She and her husband have 3 children. They've adopted 5 dogs. When we arrived at her house we had to step of baby gates, music stands, furniture and dogs to get to the laundry room, where the ten puppies and their mother were set up. Surprisingly, the house did not smell of dog. It was clean and cozy, yet crammed with dog stuff, kid stuff, volunteer stuff, and school stuff. The dogs (all 16 of them) looked healthy, relaxed, and sociable. The 3 kids were friendly, and showed love and compassion with the animals. Didn't see the husband.

Deb turned out to be exactly what we had expected - and this is a good thing. It becomes immediately apparent that Deb and her family loves and cares for each dog as an individual, and will do everything in their power to ensure that they lead the happy lives that they deserve. During our first visit Deb sized us up and down several times over. She worried about some things, and was relieved to learn other things about us. It was a process for her, of allowing herself to become convinced that we would really care for our new dog - that she could release the puppy to us. Until she was convinced, she didn't really relax. And she judged. Deb was clearly relieved to know that we would be popping by over the next week, to drop off a blanket or toy, and to just visit and play. The following week, we could not make it out to visit - she was uncomfortable with that, but then made allowances that we lived so far away, and had to drive up to Whitecourt with our daughter.

Because of Deb, I've really stopped to think through some things. Indeed, there is room for improvement in how well we train our new puppy and what I am willing to do for her during the first 6 months of her life. That's a good thing.

The SCARS mandate is to reduce the number of homeless and abused animals in Northern Alberta. This is one of the reasons Deb is so passionate about her work with SCARS. "We take in just over 400 animals in a year, and there are lots more out there,' she says. "It's a huge job, and it's going to take years and years to gradually change the mindset of people'. "We're making a difference in a dog's life, and we're giving that dog a second chance."

Ninety foster dogs. One devoted family. We need more people like Deb.

Snack: Nectarine

Sifu Brinker - Day 31

My last day of this project. I have to say that this project was one of the most enlightening experiences I have had when it comes to my personal training. My body is a machine I have not been feeding my machine properly. While in most cases I am eating healthy, I now realize I have not been properly balancing my diet nor have I been consuming enough to support my lifestyle. That being said, I plan on continuing with this project (privately) indefinitely. I am entering a stage in my life where my body's fuel is more important than ever. I hope to be on high octane from this point on.

Last day meals:

Breakfast - bowl of yogurt with two bananas and an apple mixed in.
Lunch - organic lettuce salad with pistachios, walnuts, almonds, egg, and a side of organic uncooked peas.
Supper - turkey sandwich and french fries (my last partaking of the flesh)

Supper: turkey, mashed potatoes with dairy-free margarine, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers and 2 helpings of steamed broccoli (unusual for me),

Breakfast - two bananas.

Still away on business so my dietary choices are extremely limited.

- supper was a vegetarian pizza with a thin flatbread crust.

Urp.

sifu robertson: aug 15th

Oh man.

Brunch was intense. Omlette, two eggs benedict, potatoes, spinach salad (with amazing croutons), half a waffle, various fruits and some bread pudding. Plus two cups of coffee and two glasses of orange juice.

Food coma for the rest of the day.

Tortilla chips before bed.

I regret nothing.

Brady Young: Day 14 & 15

Saturday started off with a bowl of Lean Crunch with a spoonful of peanut butter.
Lunch was a whole wheat chicken pineapple jalenpeno sandwich from Men's Health magazine.
It was a crazy night at work so the next meal didn't come for another 9 hours. I had a roasted chicken sandwich on whole wheat again, much different and more plain than lunch. Also had a pizza burger that came all the way from Nova Scotia that I'd been putting off for so long. I had to eat it just to say that I had! Had a bit of peanut butter chocolate too...

On Sunday I started off with a black coffee, a raisin bran muffin, and a Tim Horton's breakfast sandwich. Lunch was a mini fajita consisting of two flour tortillas with chicken, steak and shrimp, red peppers and a bit of cheese, tomatoes and lettuce.
Dinner was a birthday celebration BBQ...damn birthdays seem to get the best of me. I had a cheeseburger with some potato and pasta salad. A small slice of cake somehow wound up in front of me too. Almost forgot about those two apple ciders...

lunch- subway melt (foot long)
snack- grapes, handful pringles, 6 pretzels
dinner- chicken ravioli with tomato sauce, caesar salad.

dinner- macaroni

Camping does not inspire good eating (especially when it rains) as far as I'm concerned. We are leaving for Jasper right away so I am going to actually plan this time and hopefully eat better as a result.

Sifu Brinker - Day 12

Morning breakfast of yogurt and banana, lunch of a vegetarian pita of my own concoction. Lots of celery, lettuce, and cucumber and supper was fish, asparagus, beets, and rice. Everything was washed down with lots and lots of water.

This whole recording process has really opened my eyes to how rushed my meals have become. I don't really have a set time to eat and I can only classify myself as an opportunistic omnivore. I tend to eat what is handy and what is available. I definitely need to plan my meals ahead of time so that I have a little more control over what I eat. I tend to eat healthy for the most part but my diet is not balanced. I want to increase my calcium intake and more joint friendly meals. This can only happen if I plan better.

Sifu Brinker - Day 11

Forgot to post this one, sorry.

A big part of my day was spent at the kwoon, working on the renovations so it was not a typical meal day for me.

I had around 250 ml of yogurt mixed with two bananas for breakfast. Dinner was consumed at Spiros restaurant with Sihing Lindstrom and Sifu Clements. I had the Chicken Souvlaki pita with fries. Only had the fries because I forgot to specify the salad. My supper was the black belt special - Boston Pizza chicken wings and pizza bread washed down with an ice tea while meeting about our curriculum development.

Aug 10: Shameful, shameful day. (full of regret and excuses)

This is probably my worst day all year and I have to share it. A combination of bad preparation and an early morning start on a road trip to Drumheller lead to the following despicable day of eatery.

Breakfast: 2 kashi bars, coffee, water, orange juice - stopped in red deer got timbits.
Lunch: A&W - 2 burgers, onion rings and root beer. I don't really drink pop but hey I don't really eat beef either. I guess if I'm at A&W I might as well go all out.

Green Tea sometime later this day.

Supper: A little better. Seasoned chicken breasts, cucumber-tomato salad.

Snack: Salami on a stick heated by the campfire, Dad's chocolate oatmeal O cookies (whatever they are called)


Aug 11:

Breakfast: Mini-wheats, milk
Lunch: Subway italian sub and cranberry juice. Water
Snack: container of cut-up Pineapple, 2 bananas, green tea

Supper - Ravioli (the olivieri kind not the chef's), ceasar salad.

snack - cherries


Aug 12:

Breakfast - Pancakes and orange juice (orange juice is good for you but OJ will kill ya')
Lunch - yucky hot dogs, water
2nd Lunch - Garden peas (snap peas and snow peas). Grapes, Water
Pit stop in red deer - coffee and 3 kashi bars.
Supper: Macaroni noodles with tomato sauce. Quick easy filling. Water and cheese.


The next 2 days will be clean eating and then the trip to Jasper will be better planned so that the food is more pure and nutritious.

Sihing Kichko - Aug 4 - 11

I will not bore you with the gory details of my eating habits while camping. The high lights were garden fresh lettuce everyday and my morning oatmeal. The low lights would definitely have to be Jiffy popcorn (only taste good in the mountains) and something my family calls camping cookies (chocolate covered graham crackers,too good!). I took a lot more fresh fruit than I usually do and managed to snack on it more often than not but there were some serious junk food moments.
Today's food:
Breakfast : oatmeal, raisins, rye bread toast, soya milk
Snack : nectarine
Lunch : McChicken and fries, road food
Snack : Mars bar and apple juice
Supper: egg white omelet with cheese and green onions(garden) and apple juice, rye bread toast
Snack : cottage cheese, grapes

I am very glad to be back and will be able to stay away from 'holiday' foods

Banana for breakfast.

Ramen and crackers for lunch.

Frozen yogurt before work. Which I completely forgot I had. Opening the freezer and seeing that might be the best part of my week.

Forgot to eat dinner. Though I ate some popcorn and chips. Not a sufficient substitute but I'm too tired to eat anything. I'll still be hungry in the morning.

sifu robertson: aug 9th

Skipped breakfast. Well, slept in till noon...so yeah.

Egg and noodles for lunch.

Date square and a latte at work.

Spinach salad with tofu for dinner.

Nectarine and a trail bar for breakfast. Coffee too.

Cheese pizza for lunch.

Some potato salad for second lunch. Along with around 4 granola bars.

Another two granola bars. Also some bread and cheese. A litre of Arizona iced tea consumed along the way.

Sifu Brinker - Day 10

Started off my day with a breakfast of around 250 ml of yogurt with an entire banana sliced in. My lunch consisted of a variety of cheese with crackers and humus.

I broke Jeff's first rule of life at supper when I consumed an entire pineapple by slicing it up and mixing it with 250 ml of cottage cheese. There is definitely a reason why I make it a point to never eat anything bigger than my head. I wasn't feeling so good after that.

To finish the day with some extra calories, I had another healthy spinach pizza and a potato.


Day Nine and Ten: Brady Young

First meal on Monday was a tuna sandwich with cantaloupe.
Afternoon snack was a hotdog.
Dinner was steak, potatoes and salad.
Snack was popcorn and apple cider

Today I had half of a whey shake and half a bowl of green chile chicken soup. Lunch was a salad with chicken. It had carrots and tomatoes and too much dressing, and I washed it down with a spicy bowl of gumbo.
Dinner was a special occasion, mixed in with a bit of nerves and anxiousness.
I had a bbq chicken wrap in a green tortilla, two caesars for some crazy reason they put french fries with my relatively healthy chicken wrap!
