Son histoire

Voici Jenna.

Jenna court à Montréal et fait partie du Collectif XACT.

« It means power, it means strength, and it means energy. Triathlon training can be long, and take a toll on the body, and I need fuel that will keep me going whether it's an easy zone 2 session or a 4h brick day. XACT makes me the best athlete I can possibly be. »

Ce qui inspire Jenna

« I love to push myself and do things that are hard and out of my comfort zone. Triathlon is all about pushing your boundaries, seeing what your body is capable of, even when you are exhausted. It's not just a physical challenge, but also a mental one. Having the drive and discipline to train everyday in itself is a big challenge and it's something I love about the sport. I am also a very big supporter of women in sports. I am one of the co-founders of Montreal's biggest all girls run club FTG, where our goal has always been to create a safe and inviting environment where women can train and make friends. I am always happy to see women excel in male dominated fields such as running or triathlon, and it has been a personal goal of mine to help create a community for these women to make these connections, train, improve their mental and physical health and feel confident every step of the way. This definitely goes into my own passion for sport, where I always push myself to be best I can and show that women are competitors. »

Jour de course

Jour de course, à la façon de Jenna.

Du déjeuner à la ligne d’arrivée, dans ses propres mots.

Le matin
Electrolytes, coffee, two toasts with peanut butter, banana, honey and salt.
Pendant
If I am doing a half ironman, I like to do 1 gel pre swim, 1 gel post swim, 3-4 gels on the bike and 3-4 gels on the run.
Après
I love the XACT recovery mix and then usually get my carbs and protein in with a burger or sometimes a lobster roll if I am lucky

Hors course

Jenna, pour vrai.

Le conseil de Jenna

Don’t wait to drink water or take your gels. If you feel thirsty or you’re cramping it’s too late. Good to have a pre set plan and stick to it, even if you don’t feel like taking anything. My best purchase for triathlon was an aero bottle with a straw that attaches to my aero bars, it lets me sip on water throughout the race as often as possible.

Plaisir coupable

Poutine is 100% my guilty pleasure

Repas d’après-course

I love pizza after a big brick day, if not I love a healthy bowl with a bunch of veggies and protein!

Toujours dans son frigo

Greek yogurt, sweet potatoes and ground bison

Rituel de course

I am a list maker... I need to make a packing list and a timeline to structure my race morning so everything goes smoothly. Also love to have my friends and family around me to keep me in good spirits!

La toune qui pousse

teen spirit all the way 🤩

En dehors du sport

I am a student athlete. I am studying at McGill in psychology and I work in marketing for a kids outerwear brand. I also mentioned that I am a co-founder of Montreal’s biggest all girls run club which is a great project to have on the side.
