Adventure Racing and Vegetable Brownies

Adventure Racing and Vegetable Brownies

The past couple weeks have been pretty exciting for me as I prep for 2015. I love the idea of a new year, but I always try and remember that this is STILL 2014 and we have a whole lot of awesome to live out in the next couple weeks to close it out in… Read More…

Holiday Giveaway 3: Genuine Health

It’s not really a secret I love Genuine Health. It is one of those companies that I use every single day. Every morning when I wake up, I grab a water bottle full of Genuine Health ActivFuel and head to the gym, track or pool. I recently did an experiment with pre-workout nutrition which you… Read More…

What You Should be Eating: Pumpkin Seeds

What You Should be Eating: Pumpkin Seeds

I have said this before, but I truly believe that eating is linked to how you feel and how you perform. Although food is not the be all and end all, I normally start my treatment of most things with food. Have a cold setting in? I reach for the garlic before I reach for… Read More…

Vanilla CocoBerry Smoothie

Vanilla CocoBerry Smoothie

It is starting to feel like fall out there! I keep finding bits of coloured leaves in my shoes and the air has a bit of a bite. That has not been stopping me from getting in some quality swim sessions or spending time outside. I am probably the only female on earth that doesn’t… Read More…

Minimal gear and trail runners – inspiring or reckless?

Minimal gear and trail runners – inspiring or reckless?

WHYYYY. That is how I feel about the fact that fall is coming. Where did summer go? If I had my way, I would be roasting marshmallows, running on beaches and wearing sundresses all year round. Thankfully, fall is a beautiful race season and I am looking forward to tackling some great races this month:… Read More…

Beet Juice and Endurance Athletes

Jul30

Beet Juice and Endurance Athletes

I visited my naturopath the other week to talk nutrition and training. I have never talked about this on the blog before, but I am an endurance athlete with Graves Disease which is an aggressive form of hyperthyroidism. Basically, while everyone else’s thyroid decides to slow down, mine wants to ramp into high gear which causes… Read More…

Recovery Popsicles

Recovery Popsicles

I am so excited about this week. It had been fairly rainy and temperate here the past week or so, which is fabulous for training, but I am a bit of an outlier in the fact that I love training in the heat. Humidity doesn’t bother me, in fact, I welcome it because I love… Read More…

Supplements for Runners and a Genuine Health Giveaway!

Seriously. How are we at Wednesday, guys? It may feel so unusual because I treated my Monday night like another weekend evening. I headed up to Toronto to speak at Allegra’s running clinic at the Running Room. The chat was on staying motivated in your training. From there, I headed to meet some fellow Digital… Read More…

ZICO Recovery Popsicles

ZICO Recovery Popsicles

It is getting WARM out there! Heat training is something I adore because in my opinion, there is nothing more fun than getting a giant, stinging eyes,  drip-down-your-back sweat on after a hard interval session which is exactly what happened this week at practice with my team. I came home and drank my regular recovery… Read More…
