Learning to Ski at Blue Mountain

Well hello there! I hope everyone has had a fabulous week! I spent the week foam rolling and icing my IT Band (while keeping an eye on the Olympics) in hopes that it is up to snuff for my first race of 2014 this weekend! I may have to drop down to 8 KM from… Read More…

Book Review: The Big Book of Endurance Training and Racing by Dr Philip Maffetone

Book Review: The Big Book of Endurance Training and Racing by Dr Philip Maffetone

It’s February and I haven’t fallen off the goal wagon yet! I am trying not to let my busyness crowd out my love for reading and I have set a goal to read one book a month throughout 2014. With a full time job, a jammed training schedule and some semblance of a social life,… Read More…

It’s Valentine’s Day and I Love Food (Blue Mountain Review)

Feb14

It’s Valentine’s Day and I Love Food (Blue Mountain Review)

A couple weekends ago, I packed up the Prius and headed to Blue Mountain for a winter adventure. I have spent many wintery afternoon on the hills, but it was a treat to be able to stay at a lodge by the base of the hill. I stayed in a suite in Weider Lodge, which opens… Read More…

Pure NRG by Sears GIVEAWAY CLOSED

If you were to go into my dresser at this very moment you would see a few drawers neatly folded with the necessities of professional wear and the bottom two drawers heaped to the brim with spandex, cooling fabric and multi-colours. The workout clothing drawers.  Considering an average day consists of both a morning and… Read More…

Breathing Patterns and Running

Breathing Patterns and Running

A couple weeks ago, I was working with my physiotherapist and he was barking orders while I ran on a treadmill. “Keep your left foot 1/2 cm to the left.” “Get rid of that toe strike on your right foot!” “Midfoot on the left.” I was thinking so hard about running properly that I felt… Read More…

Chia: The Sexiest Food In Running

Chia: The Sexiest Food In Running

No other food has become sexier in the ultra community than chia seeds. I mean, we’ve all read Born to Run. That blend of maize and chia seeds that fuelled the desert ultra runs of the Tarahumara Indians of Mexico is enough to make me want to throw out all my protein bars and gels and live the… Read More…

January Goal Review

January Goal Review

It is hard to believe that we have already headed into February. January has been a bit of a whirl wind, but if it is any indicator of how the rest of 2014 is going to go, I am in for a fabulous year! Despite being a busy month, I was able to tackle a… Read More…
