The ‘Grind’

Hi Everyone!   Hope you’re all finding ways to beat the heat. Way to go everyone who’s getting in their long runs and rides despite it.   What I’ve been thinking about lately is how we all seem to cycle through what we ask of running. Sometimes we just want it to be there for […]

You are not your running

Hi Everyone!   Hope you’re all soaking in August and running in the sun (with sunscreen!) when you can. We are getting some beautiful days so let’s soak them all in so we have them deep inside come February!   One thing I was thinking about and wanted to share was to make sure our […]

Nourishment

Hi All!   Hope you’re all doing well and staying cool, hydrated and replenished. All three of those things take a lot more work in these conditions, so don’t take it for granted. Your body’s usual cues for thirst, nutrition and electrolytes/nutrients may be slightly off as you adapt to the heat, so make sure […]

Having Fun

Hey All!   Hope you’re all enjoying watching the Olympics. Wow. So much drama and emotion and so many stories!   I have always loved sports. To me, sports have always represented fun and play. When I was a shy little kid and my parents asked me what camp I wanted to do in the […]

Asking

Hi Everyone!   It’s been so great seeing so many of you out doing a multitude of activities. And I hope everyone is getting in some good Olympics watching! I am loving it.   What I’ve been thinking about this week is the ability to ask for what we want or need. I think many […]

Magic Bullets

Hi Everyone!   Hope you’re all managing to stay cool and drinking lots of water (dehydration can sneak up on you when you’re going from heat to air conditioning). Also, let’s just stay aware of this smog that is hanging over the city – it is particulates from forest fires, so if you’re feeling any […]

Set-Backs

Hi Gang!   Many of us are getting into the groove of summer training. We have fall goals on the horizon and are excited to work towards them. This is what we love! Big goals with plans filled with hard work and fun in order to get us there.   As we start out and […]

Make the hard things easier

Hi Everyone!   I can’t tell you how great it’s been to see faces to work out live with again – for running and boot camps in the park! I’m loving it.   What I’ve been thinking about this week is about making hard things easier. Sometimes, once we’ve gotten our heads around doing something […]

Happy Summer :)

Hey All!     Happy Summer!!!   On many of my runs and walks this week I’ve noticed so many people out enjoying each others’ company, playing tennis, splashing in pools, playing basketball, walking, running, just enjoying life. And it makes me so happy. I feel welcomed back into our outdoor spaces – washrooms are […]

The Art of Showing Up

Hey Everyone!!!   First up, if you’re looking for some jolts of inspiration, motivation and just pure entertainment, I hope you’re following the US Olympic track qualifiers happening now, and this weekend we have the Canadian trials coming up! So fun.   What I’ve been thinking about this week is the art of showing up. […]
