When I'm not running, I cycle about 30 miles a day. I use the biking as cross training. I'm kind of a maniac. I race everybody.

I do think it's a lot of fun. It's a day to come out to go biking and running. I think it's a day someone can have fun and look forward to. It's a good way to keep in shape, be healthy and enjoy recreation.

Biking is my meditation. I never actually stopped doing anything. The hip made me stop running, so I got on the bike.

Toronto is exploding with cyclists, with more and more people wanting to cycle and being turned off driving because of the incredible congestion. Biking is a much more efficient way of getting around, and you get there faster.

I'm an intense guy. I run 10 miles a day, which helps alleviate my intensity. Also, singing helps defuse my intensity. Playing the piano helps, and writing helps.

I like to bike 60 miles a day, but I like to stay in hotels. After biking those 60 miles it's nice to have a bed and a shower and not have 300 people at a campsite vying for showers.
