Oh, heck, just three weeks left.

As much as I like goal-setting and making plans, well, sometimes those things go awry. I have a long...

Butterflies and sweaty palms

This post isn’t about all that ‘personal journey to a stronger and more fit me’...

Okay, so perhaps I was a bit hasty...

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 15:13:00 -0500

I truly, honestly thought I’d be ready to let ‘er rip on the TRX last week. The fact...

I don't make New Year's resolutions

It’s not that I don’t believe in goals. I just don’t like the idea of doing it...

Just wanted to share something fun (I’ll post another time...

Just wanted to share something fun (I’ll post another time about my on-going path to fitness and such later).

Last night, I attended the Prince concert at the Halifax Metro Centre with my dear pal, the fabulous fashion designer, Lisa Drader-Murphy of Turbine. (Oh, and while I’m at it …. be sure to follow Turbine online — see the links at the far bottom of this post!)

Anyway, another sensational friend, the inimitable and spectacular Donna Saker (host of The Beat of Your Workday from 9 am to 4 pm weekdays on Montreal’s Q92 “The beat of Montreal”) called me up and had me chat with her briefly about my thoughts on last night’s concert. Yes, Montreal, he will be making you all Delirious and showering you with Purple Rain Friday night (oh, Montreal, I’m envious of you!)!

Oh and here are ways you can find Turbine online:

How did that happen?

Talk about falling off the wagon. More than a week had gone by since my last workout when I finally...

Made it down the runway in one piece.

Mon, 17 Oct 2011 15:56:00 -0400

First off, I didn’t quite get in my three workouts last week. Somehow, for me, squeezing in...

A new week. A new goal.

Tue, 11 Oct 2011 20:23:00 -0400

Okay, so I haven’t exactly been hitting my target number of workouts per week (3 to 4) lately....

Quick post

Just writing this quick little note as my motivation: I did work out yesterday and it was my second...

The road to fitness is paved with good intentions

Mon, 03 Oct 2011 10:18:27 -0400

Yes, I missed a WHOLE WEEK. Following my return from Manitoba, I spent the last week catching up on...

Training, even if your heart isn't in it.

After a day of helping my Dad with some difficult tasks today, my sister and I decided we needed to...

Gotta get 'er done.

Tue, 20 Sep 2011 22:25:00 -0400

Well, it’s been a weird week, to be honest. A difficult one. My father’s dear wife and...

Getting into the groove

It’s been two weeks since starting my new approach to building strength (and, I dare say, a...

Guilt: It really works!

Tue, 13 Sep 2011 10:09:00 -0400

As is my usual pattern, usually shortly after beginning a new fitness program, I somehow manage to...

I may have been asleep, but whatever.

Fri, 09 Sep 2011 09:07:00 -0400

Yep. Worked out again this morning. I’m not sure I was actually awake until it was all over,...

Not going to lie to you.

Tue, 06 Sep 2011 11:59:00 -0400

Sept. 6 I nearly opted out this morning. I had every excuse ready, even before I went to bed last...

Not part of the plan, but whatever works.

Tue, 06 Sep 2011 11:45:00 -0400

Just a quick post to note the ‘workout’ I endured while cleaning/decluttering my...

Sea kayaking. Oh, yes!

Sun, 04 Sep 2011 09:57:00 -0400

Just wanted to jot this down before a day goes by and I’m on to something else: sea kayaking...

Sept. 1. Game on.

Thu, 01 Sep 2011 23:03:00 -0400

Okay, so I did it. The alarm went off at 6:25 this morning and I was working out by 6:32. I had set...

Here we go.

Tomorrow is the day. A week ago, I boldly told the world (okay, fine, my Facebook world) that as of...
