As a compliment to my most recent blogs on sports drinks and power snacking, I thought it would be fitting to include a link to this CBC documentary on the same topic.
“Farther, Faster, Fitter?” -- http://www.cbc.ca/player/shows/ID/2434236860/
CBC’s Marketplace did an excellent documentary on sports products called “Farther, Faster, Fitter?”, which reviewed popular, mass marketed sports drinks, snacks and footwear. It also featured interviews with elite Canadian athletes like Olympians Simon Whitfield and Clara Hughes, who know a thing or two about sports products! I highly recommend watching it. The producers do a good job of taking the professional/high-tech and dissecting it for lay-mans use in the real world.
On a side note, my fellow ultimate frisbee teammates might recognize the Monarch Park sports dome in the video! So it really hits close to home for many of us ;) Enjoy!

P.S. Just a few days after posting this blog, I bump into the documentary test subject triathlete Leanna Lee while attending the Toronto Triathlon Festival on Sat, July 12. You may recognize her from the CBC documentary! Its a small triathlon community indeed!
Good Luck in your future races Leanna! Make Canada proud!
