Anything is possible: My experience at the Maine Ironman triathlon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“It doesn’t hurt,” I sobbed, referring to my unnaturally bent left arm. Actually, it did hurt. A lot. But that wasn’t why I was crying in an urgent care center three days after moving into my Portland apartment, the same day I started my summer internship at the Portland Press Herald, and about 56 minutes after I bought my new bike. I was crying because I was seeing four months of training, and well over a year of dreaming, go down the drain. Because I was scared and in urgent care with a roomma
Portland launches strategic plan for urban forest areas as risks persist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Invasive pests. Intensifying storms. Housing development pressure. The trees of Maine’s largest city are increasingly at risk. “We’re facing pretty strong headwinds,” said Jack Phillips, executive director of Portland Parks Conservancy, who estimates that the city is planting only two trees for every three it loses. To fight back against these challenges, the conservancy has partnered with the city and a consulting firm to develop an urban forest master plan. Part of that will include a communit

“It’s not exactly rational, is it, to put yourself through this type of test,” said Andrew Emig, 39, of Farmingdale. Emig participated in his first Ironman 70.3 (sometimes called a half Ironman; swim, bike and run distances double for a full Ironman of 140.6 miles) last summer, just five months removed from brain surgery.

A century or more ago, Maine’s vast northern border was more like a town line where people moved fr
What to expect for weather in Maine this weekend as Canadian wildfires continue (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While major midwestern cities and the Washington, D.C., metro area have been hit hardest so far by smoke from the Ontario wildfires, an expected change in wind will likely bring smokier skies to Maine this weekend. Recent severe storms cleared some of the heavier smoke seen across the state Tuesday night and Wednesday, but a new front is projected to push smoke north again. Air quality will worsen between Friday and Saturday, leaving the majority of the state in the “moderate” range, according t
