Today we celebrate one of the greatest sporting achievements in honour of Terry Fox.

At 21 years of age he set out from St John's on a prosthetic leg and ran close to a marathon every day for 143 days and 5,373 kilometres across Canada.

Cancer forced him to stop outside Thunder Bay before he could finish, but the Marathon of Hope has since raised over $1 billion for cancer research in over 60 countries, leaving an unparalleled legacy that inspires the entire world to run in his honour on this day.

Now that the Fall session is officially underway.

We wanted to highlight another athlete as part of Peak.

University of Ottawa Varsity Track Athlete: Adriano Castillo is preparing with our team for his upcoming events.

Our specialized training programs start from kids in their first season to adults chasing personal bests or longevity.

Every program is shaped on real data and shaped around the person in front of us built over 30+ years of working with Professional Athletes and Olympic Teams.

Come visit. We'd love to have you as a part of Peak.

Today is International Taekwondo Day, marking the day in 1994 that taekwondo became an Olympic sport.

Peak Centre opened its doors the same year.

It feels right to highlight: Dillon Parmer, third dan black belt and part of Peak for over two years. 💪

Across a 5 month training several of his starting points improved:
Vertical Jump: 18" to 22"
Plank to failure: 2:00 to 2:30
Wall sit to failure: 2:10 to 2:30
Sprint (laps in two minutes): 16 to 18
Push Ups in one minute: 55 to 60
Body Weight squats in one minute: 74 to 80
Medicine ball toss: 230" to 248"
Standing long jump: 83" to 84"

"I take my training very seriously, and the results speak for themselves. Applying Peak Centre's training techniques has allowed me to make significant improvements. The encouragement and tailored programs have been instrumental in my progress." - Dillon Parmer

Thank you for being a role model for the sport, and for being a part of Peak.👏

Less than a month to go until IRONMAN Ottawa.

You've trained all year for one of the toughest days in the sport and the whole team at Peak is wishing you the best out there!

A quick reminder as you taper: Over 140.6 miles your aerobic threshold decides the pace you can actually maintain till the finish.

Higher threshold = faster race

Come test yours before race day so you pace it on your actual numbers.

Happy Canada Day! 🍁

On July 1st, 1867, this beautiful country was born. Today we celebrate 159 years of unity, love, and peace, the core Canadian values the world recognizes us for.

In the early 1920s, Canadian researchers at the University of Toronto discovered insulin and sold the patent for a single dollar, so that no one anywhere would ever be priced out of staying alive. They believed it belonged to the world.

That is the spirit of this country 🇨🇦
