There are innumerable people who participate in triathlons or their component parts and I know almost none of them. It’s a little odd, really, the dearth of people I know who share this interest. Thus, when a coworker sent a group email invite to the Renegade Turkey Triathlon, I couldn’t say no for three reasons.
The name Calscadia came from a portmanteau of the CAL from California where I reside and SCADIA for the Cascades, where I’m from originally as well as in reference to Cascade Locks where I adopted a beloved Bernese Mountain Dog. I started this website and social media as an outlet to talk about the adventures I take, the people I meet and the gear I abuse along the way. When I talk about gear, I’ll tell you what works, what doesn’t and why I came to that conclusion. I purchase my own gear, am not sponsored and won’t put ads on videos because I hate that as much as you do. I may get money from affiliate links but you’ll always know that in advance. Hopefully I’ll see you out there!
