75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
We live in a place and do the kind of work that reveals to me the power of nature all the time. Even after all these years the power of a good storm can still leave me in awe. This week our rain day turned in to a non-sheduled storm. Not a huge one but... Continue Reading →
I’m Canadian and everyone knows that it is cold and it snows a lot here. Actually that’s true in some places but not so much in others. I’m in one of those medium places. That said you know how people say “but it’s a dry cold”, while here it is always, always a damp cold.... Continue Reading →
Tis' a weird time to be a runner isn’t it? It turns out it really is going to be a whole year without racing. Our favorite family reindeer run is canceled this year too. Sad face.

We’ve all heard about it, many of us have seen it happen on race day and we might have even experienced it at one point. Whether you call it boinking, tapping out or hitting the wall it’s something most athletes are aware of. I feel like it has happened to me years ago on the... Continue Reading →
I think everyone does it from time to time but there really is nothing worse than the humble brag. Maybe a few things are, but it’s still pretty bad! They can take many forms but they could be a complaint about an actual accomplishment, burring the lead or a dismissive tone. Humble brags aren’t specific... Continue Reading →
Most of us are still stuck pretty close to home these days and that can feel not so great. Especially if you are used to traveling for your adventures. While I like the idea in theory of traveling we have most of our adventures close to home. People who run their own businesses will likely... Continue Reading →
