Fitspeek 76: Elise Swims

Fitspeek 76 introduces you to Penticton’s Elise Reeh. Although active as a youngster, she was more of a nerd than a jock when it came to team sports in junior & senior high school.

Elise did a lot of running in her years after high school and eventually caught the endurance sports bug and has completed over a dozen marathons, half-ironmans, and completed the Penticton Ironman in 2005. After being a paddler for an athlete at the Skaha Lake Ultra Swim in 2018, she was inspired to try it herself.

In our interview with Elise we hear about her preparation for the Ultra Swim as well as her adventures in the lake on race day. You can hear it now by pressing play below.

Fitspeek is brought to you by Tri*Joy} The Spirit of Multisport. We are now accepting athletes for the fall 2019 training season. We offer a free in – person consultation and goal setting session. If you’ve always wanted to run a 10 K, 1/2 marathon, or do a triathlon Tri*Joy can get you to the finish line. E-mail me at kknnheinze@yahoo.com to set up a meeting.
