Being a runner translates into a lot of running shoes. I need my minimalist shoes for short distances, my track spikes for XC races, my supportive training shoes, my trail shoes, etc. And considering I try to swap them out approximately every 400-600 miles, it can feel as if I am buying shoes constantly.

The Worst Job Interview…ever
I like to view Fridays as an opportunity to go a bit off topic. I want to talk about something that everyone need to go through at some point in their life, especially the newly graduated. The Job Interview. Instead of compiling a list of DOs and DON’Ts, I thought I would sum everything up… Read More…
There has to be a reason
One of the best things about running is the people you meet along the way. I find that long distance running collects a certain breed of human – one who is able to hang tight with pain over a long period of time, slightly addicted to endorphins and in general, optimistic. One of the most incredible… Read More…

Running With Friends (How to Avoid a 127 Hours Incident)
Happy Monday, one and all! I had a weekend of running! I have run for the past 8 years or so mainly solo. I have run with local trail teams and varsity through university, but I seemed to thrive on hitting the trail, freeways and sidewalks alone without leaving notes or letting my friends and family know… Read More…
How to Exercise in the Morning (And Like It)

Michael Fisk Memorial Arrhythmia Run
When I was very young, my mom’s brother passed away from an unknown heart condition in his early thirties on a Valentine’s Day evening. Every February 14, my mom will buy a bouquet of flowers for James, call her mother and our family will spend a few moments talking about this man that I will… Read More…
A way through
It was early last Saturday morning and I breezed downstairs to head out for the day. I walked through the kitchen on the way to pour myself a cup of coffee and saw my youngest sister sitting alone at the table, picking at cold egg whites and a couple of blueberries and calling it a… Read More…
