171km in 48 hours.

First, I want to thank everyone—from the people who made time out of their day to run with me, to the people who called and texted to everyone online who commented or liked. My heart was full the entire race. Every time I opened my phone, it was flooded with messages. Above all, a bigger thank you to my roommate Oakley and crew chief Rob for being in the trenches with me the whole way.

As for the race, it broke me down mentally and physically. I went in with no expectation of distance—just a simple question: am I really the person I preach I am online? I’m beyond proud of what I was able to do.

There are things I would do differently. Truthfully, I feel like there was more to give, and my strategy wasn’t perfect. But I’m still proud of how I showed up.

There’s something hard to explain about pushing yourself that far and stripping life down to nothing but movement and decision. Something special about setting a goal and refusing to stop until you reach it. I’ll lose sleep over stepping out of a warm Jeep into two-degree Toronto lakeshore wind, getting hit in the face like a wall every lap. My feet screaming, my knees begging me to stop.

This is just the start for me. I’m young, fresh, and hungry for more. It was nice to dip my toes in the water—but now it’s time to jump. by @jacknewtrition

What a race with my brother @justindeelz 🔥
No prep. No excuses. Just two fellas testing the limits.
We jumped in to see how far we could really push ourselves — goal was sub 1:10 in the pro division, and we kept the pedal down till the finish line (or till we saw stars).
A little weekend side quest ✅
Now it’s back to Ironman prep — 27 days out. by @jacknewtrition

TORONTO, THAT WAS A MOVIE. 🇨🇦🎬

Nothing like going to war on home soil with your brother.

Didn’t get the result we came for, but that’s racing. We gave it everything we had and left absolutely nothing out there.

The energy, the crowd, the memories. Wouldn’t trade it for anything. Toronto showed OUT

Thankful for these moments. We’ll be back. ⚔️
