Sorry to miss last week’s Workout Wednesday post on winter running. I was…on vacation. When I am travelling, I like to take a little bit of a technology detox. As a blogger, PR manager and millennial, my phone tends to be glued to my hip so whenever is appropriate, I like to go off-line. One… Read More…
My Christmas Gift to You
MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you lovely people. This was all scheduled to go out on Christmas morning and then for some odd reason, WordPress decided to eat it. For your patience, here are some scenes from my Christmas: It has been an incredible year and I am so excited for what 2016 holds. I… Read More…
Transrockies Recap
Well, this is one of those posts where I really don’t even know where to begin. All I know is that as I left for Transrockies, I knew that it would be one of those races that would change my life,…again. This year has been a huge one in terms of experiences rather than races…. Read More…
Mexico and STWM: On Balance
Well, this was certainly a different marathon. For starters, I hopped off a plane and headed to straight to Toronto to get my cheer on for the thousands of people who ran the SWTM yesterday, meaning I left all this behind: Angela and I headed down the night before and stayed with a friend.

Goals for July
Well this post is a little late. I would say I cared but I don’t. I really don’t. We are in the midst of a Canadian long weekend and I am in full out vacation mode. I went camping this past weekend and I had a wonderful weekend with friends full of sunsets, long trails… Read More…
Training While on Vacation
Greetings from Collingwood. Apologies for the lack of communication on Monday – I took the day off to relax in the most exaggerated sense possible on vacation with my family and a few members we have adopted along the way. A few shots so far: It has been fantastic – full of fresh air, lots… Read More…
And frankly, with the amount of blood I lost, I really don’t want to know…
This past week, I had some pretty invasive dental surgery that I flippantly cancelled to go on the 100 Mile Trek in April. It was under the florescent lights, scalpel on the tray and syringe full of chemicals to freeze my gums that I admitted to the doctor why I bailed on the first surgery… Read More…
