Squamish Training Weekend a Success!

Thanks to all the women of Active Life Multisport Club who came out to the Training Weekend in Squamish this past Sat/Sun. We had two excellent days of trail running and riding and are looking forward to a great summer. Thanks to Bean Around the World in Brackendale for supporting us this year and keeping us caffeinated and ready to go! 

Hope to see you out riding, hiking, and running the first week in May!
