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…

Staying Focused During a Long Run

Staying Focused During a Long Run

I remember standing at the starting line of cross country races in high school and thinking: “This is going to hurt.” I was almost always undertrained, underfed and over stressed, but I would launch myself through the course with reckless abandon and would indeed, be hurting by the end when I crawled into the team… Read More…

Happy Holiday Monday! Part of me hopes you are no where near a computer to read this and are exploring or taking a nap somewhere (two equally important holiday things). But since you are hear, I will try and make it worthwhile. This past weekend has flown by. I knocked a few important things off… Read More…

June Goal Check-in and 5 More for July

Happy Holiday Monday, everyone! It is crazy to believe that we are already into the summer, but I am determined to soak up every bit of it! Right now, I am most likely on a beach or running the trails; soaking up, indeed! The beginning of every month is also a time to check in… Read More…

It is literally is a miracle I am still standing.

Jun26

It is literally is a miracle I am still standing.

Hydration is something I haven’t always taken seriously. When training for my first ultra marathon, I would wake at dawn and run the required distance (in the vicinity of 35-40 km) and forget my water bottle at home.

Dealing with Problem Skin

Dealing with Problem Skin

I am fortunate to work with naturopaths at both of my jobs. Unfortunately for them, I am a curious human being and have a myriad of questions for them almost always. One of my close friends at work is going through to be a certified health coach and has undertaken my skin as one of… Read More…

Killing the Common Cold

Jan5

Killing the Common Cold

On Wednesday afternoon, I felt the first stirrings of a nasty cold. I know it has been circulating like mad; my household has a 4:1 ratio of it. Seeing both of my sisters completely down and out with this cold with multiple days off work, I knew I needed to approach this cold with stealth…. Read More…
