Sweat it Out... Maybe it’s the weather?I had been feeling really — and I mean really — unmotivated to go outside to run these days. It got to the point where I waited in line at a small and sweaty community centre just to have my 30-minute turn on a treadmill in a room that was lacking a desirable view and ventilation. What is wrong with this picture?Can’t say noLucky for me, I have a group of

Meet Your Goals... Then Celebrate Friends and family can often be the best motivators for getting out there and staying active... When I woke up last Monday morning, the typical tokens of a post 21km run were right there to greet me with open arms.From sore knees to tight muscles and not to mention the sideways headache from all the celebratory barley pops consumed after the race. With all that

Just Breathe... Just Breathe… I’m still worried about my lungs being able to carry me through. I have all the faith in my muscles, however, pacing during my “race pace” jogs along the beach I find it hard to catch my breath. Am I too excited? Am I getting ahead of myself? When is it time to jump in with both feet and when is it time to let go? Reminds me of a quote by Henry Ellis, “All the art

Get Ready. Gear Up. Lately I’ve grown a little tired of the same old seawall run and all the trials and tribulations that come with it. You know the one: At every corner you’re avoiding some careless dog owner who’s allowed 20 feet of leash to be stretched out across the path, which will inevitably trip the sketchy muscle man going way too fast for his own good in his new inline skates. Don’t

A struggle, a reminder and a cause... How my friend’s struggle with breast cancer reminded me of what is important in life. In early February I found myself in a position I thought I would never be in again, needing a reminder of what is important in life. After spending the afternoon with my friend Michelle, I sat down and wrote a note to all the women in my life. To the women in my life…I am
