Goals for December 2017

Goals for December 2017

For the last while, when I wouldn’t get up at 5:30 AM for my morning workouts, I would sleep in an extra hour. While that was nice, I decided to keep a standard wake up across the board – work out or not. The mornings that I am not sweating, I am stretching and meditating. I… Read More…

My Sport Isn’t All I’m Crushing – Vision Loss

My Sport Isn’t All I’m Crushing – Vision Loss

I could not do this series without featuring Rhonda-Marie. If you are in the running community, chances are, you have met her, ran with her or at the very least, heard of her. She is a blind ultra runner (she says aspiring but I think if you have done the Barkley Marathons, you can’t use… Read More…

November Coffee Date

November Coffee Date

I have to be honest – I normally dread November. There is something about this month that is just HARD. It is grey, dull and cold. There are no holidays (at least in Canada) and the days are getting shorter and shorter. For some reason, this November hasn’t been bad. I mean, it is even… Read More…

Long QT Syndrome – My Sport Isn’t All I’m Crushing

I think this may be my favourite blog series yet. Being able to shine a spotlight on some of the most resilient athletes I know is so exciting and I have heard a similar story from all of you. So far, we have chatted stage four cancer, broken hips, hyperthyroidism and last week, Multiple Sclerosis…. Read More…

The Key to Happiness (An Update)

The Key to Happiness (An Update)

This post is sponsored by TD and the TD Common Ground Project. One of the things I love to learn more about is the science of happiness. There are so many studies on the world’s happiest people, exploring where they live, how they live and who they are living with. The things that make me… Read More…

Multiple Sclerosis – My Sport Isn’t All I’m Crushing

From broken hips to stage four cancer, we sure have explored a lot in the past three weeks. Whether it is a long terms illness, diagnosis or just something that is causing an athlete to deal with a unique set of challenges in their sport, this series is looking at athletes who are facing adversity… Read More…

USARA – The Final Edition

USARA – The Final Edition

When Ed sent this final edition of our race recap over, he added that writing this has felt a little like therapy to get over a traumatic event. That being said, he also has willingly offered to do it again, so he totally is another member of the Type 2 Fun Club that I find… Read More…

Broken Hip: My Sport Isn’t All I’m Crushing

Thank you for all of your support and kind words for Ryan last week.  When I was brainstorming this series, I was blown away by the amount of people in my life who are tackling something big and I am excited that I get to share their incredible journeys. Today, I caught up with Edwin Vane…. Read More…

Goals for November 2017

You guys – I love goal setting. I think it has something to do with the fact that I am a list person. Accomplishing something, whether on a to-do list or a bucket list provides that very satisfying feeling of accomplishment and I love setting new mini-goals at the beginning of each month. With the end… Read More…

October 2017 Training – Racing on Cheesecake

October 2017 Training – Racing on Cheesecake

Well, it looks like I skipped talking about my September training which makes total sense because there is very little to report. When we last chatted about it, I was drinking wine.  Little has changed since then, except now there is an end in sight. I’ll explain in a moment. What did September/October look like?… Read More…
