As some of you may have noticed, I’ve been wearing a new friend on my arm for the past couple weeks The Polar M400! Polar sent it to me for review a few weeks ago and I’ve been happily wearing it ever since. I’m a long time Polar user. I started of with the Polar […]
Solo Energy Bars Review + Giveaway
I’ve made it no secret around here that I’m a hard customer when it comes to protein powder and protein bars. Up until now the only protein bar I’ve ever liked at all was the SunRype bars I wrote about last month. That was until I tried SOLO Energy bars. I have a hard time […]
Tara Stiles: make your own rules diet {a review}
I’ve been a fan of Tara Stiles and her approach to yoga for years. It was her that really got me interested in practising yoga and later on becoming an instructor. I wrote about it here w-a-y back but sadly it was one of the posts lost when my site was hacked a few years […]

Keeping It In Perspective
Today is Remembrance Day here in Canada. A day when we pause to remember all that was lost, and all that was fought for in the line of duty. Instead of posting my weekly re-cap I decided today to instead share something a bit different. Yesterday was a rough day for me. Murphy’s Law struck and […]
Dare2Give And Make Canada A Better Place
For some reason this time of year always makes me think more about giving back to those less fortunate. Perhaps it’s because I associate this time of year with the giving and receiving of gifts. I always feel so very blessed on my birthday (which also happens to be in December) and on Christmas, so […]
Fabletics Review
For well over a year I’ve had to sit by while my American friends had all the fun. First with Stitch Fix, and the with Fabletics. I’ve been horribly envious of their subscription clothing services so how excited was I when I discovered that Fabletics was in Canada? I have no idea how long it’s […]
October Faves
October has come and gone, and that means we are gearing up for you know what…. No, not snow (though I’m sure that’s on it’s way too). I’m talking about my October favourites list! That’s right, I’m actually following through and for the second month in a row compiling some of my favourite things. I […]
Lucky 7 Relay 2014
Well folks, my race season for 2014 has come to an end. And really, it was probably my worst year of running. I ran less than I normally do, which made me slower than I usually am, and over all I struggled more during races this year than I think I ever had before. However, […]
Pumpkins and Robots
Happy November the 4th, which according to my calendar is election day in the US. Here in Canada it’s just another ordinary Tuesday! Since I had to get my Footlogix giveaway up yesterday, today I’ll do my weekly life recap. 😉 After finding out I passed my exam last week (yippee!!!!) I’ve very much enjoyed not […]
