Tuesday, July 9, 2024 – Racing as meditation

Hi Everyone! Huge congrats to everyone who raced the Muskoka 70.3 Ironman!  Jon McCrea who came top 10 in his age group in a big PB, Carolyn Steele Gray who came 7th in her age group – not sure if it was a PB but looked like a very fast time. And Jason Jacobs who […]

Tuesday, July 2, 2024 – Appreciating our health

Hi Everyone! Happy Canada Day and Happy Pride! I kind of like how we celebrate both of those things together – incorporating the values of Pride with the values of our country feels important.

Hi Everyone! Congrats to Carolyn Steele Gray who came 1st in her her age group in the Guelph Tri! Way to open the tri season. And I think I missed kudos to Madalyn last weekend who rocked a Half IM and came 7th in her AG! Not sure if anyone here raced the Under Armour […]

Hi Everyone! First up, huge congrats to Chris Fortin who ran in the Buttertart Trot Half Marathon and came 2nd in his age group and third place overall with a 1:25!!!

Tuesday, June 4, 2024 – Positive Mindset

Hi Everyone!! How great are these long days right now? I don’t know about you but I feel like it just gives me so much more flexibility and more options to run and hang out outside. And I’m loving it! I’m not usually an evening worker-outer, but having broad daylight vs pitch black at 6pm […]

Tuesday, May 28, 2024 – With Purpose (Carolyn Steele Gray)

Hi Everyone!   Hope everyone had a great weekend. We’re definitely entering “summer-mode” now – whatever that means for you. For most it means a transition of some sort, so give yourselves some grace while your routines, energy, people around you shift and settle into a new pattern. Congrats this weekend to Brianna who ran […]

Tuesday, May 21, 2024 – Talent

Hi Everyone!   Hope you all had a great long weekend! What a glorious one for weather. We deserve this. Whether you’re walking, running, biking or swimming – get outside! This is one of the benefits of having shuffled on ice or struggled on treadmills or sweated in place on trainers – we can now […]
