Run or Dye Halifax 2013
This past Saturday I got to participate in my first colour run!! Well walk actually, as I’ve got a pulled muscle in my back I didn’t dare run. The race was at Martock – so not actually in Halifax at all, which was great for us since it meant we had a shorter drive Saturday […]

A Different Perspective on Fitness
I’ve known for a long time that my perspective on fitness and health is different from many other people. We are all a product of our experiences, and we have all lived through a huge variety of experiences both good and bad, and it is those that shape how we look at life. I think […]
There’s Always A To-Do List a Mile Long
Yesterday was a beautiful day. We’ve had really nice (and hot) weather so far this week. I had a class at noon and another one in the evening so between those I had a list of things I wanted to get done, but nothing that really had to be done. So I did what any […]
Time to YogaFit!
