About

Welcome to the blog of the Antiques of Steel, a group of Ottawa, Ontario women who enjoy getting together for different athletic pursuits. We were formerly also called the Rice Pudding Runners, a name we took on after going for rice pudding at the Green Door Restaurant after our runs. We have now ceased to be Rice Puddingers, but are proud to remain antiques. We will be periodically posting group and individual accounts of our adventures. Members of our group have kayaked from Kingston to Ottawa, cycled the Waterfront Trail from Niagara on the Lake to Cornwall, volunteered at Ironman Mont-Tremblant, and done innumerable marathons and other races and triathlons. As a group, we have invented and completed our own versions of summer and winter triathlons. We hope you are inspired to do the same.
