Rundle Range FKT

After races were cancelled in 2020, Peak Run Performance Coach Jacob Puzey wanted to run a local route that he had always wanted to run but couldn’t find the time to fit it into previous race build ups. Without any races on the calendar, it was much easier to find the time to fit it in.
With a small group of friends and family, Jacob started in Canmore, Alberta (where he lives) and ran to Banff, Alberta on the paved Legacy Trail. They ran through Banff and then back to Canmore on the Goat Creek Trail and Spray Lakes Road (dirt). This is one way of circumnavigating the Rundle Range - an iconic mountain range in the Canadian Rockies.
It wasn’t a race, but it was a fun effort with friends. Jacob's wife Amy and Peak Run Performance athlete, Tyler Williams, rode next to him and carried fuel for him. They thought it would be fun to highlight the natural beauty of the area with this run so Peak Run Performance Coach Eric Reyes filmed much of the effort from his bike. Sean Nielsen took photos along the way.
We wanted to share this because despite the uncertainty of in-person races in many parts of the world, it is still possible to set goals and tackle them.
It’s even possible to safely have fun with friends and family outdoors (where and when permitted).
What’s a a goal that you have for this year?
Can you do it in your own backyard?
Can you safely include a few friends or family members to make it even more memorable?
Many thanks to Coach Eric Reyes for synthesizing the footage with music by Jacob's brothers, AJ Legrand and Dallin Puzey.
