I just typed out a powerful and emotional blog post for you all and something flashed on my screen and it’s gone. All that was left was my working title What’s Next? I could cry in frustration but instead I’ll move forward. Because that’s what we do. I’m a #goaldigger and that means I’m usuallyContinue reading “What next?”

Why it’s awesome when things don’t go as planned
I’m an event planner and a recovering perfectionist so having things go according to plan is kinda my jam. I’ve done a lot of self-growth work over the last number of years, especially over the last 9 months, and I’m done with jam, (too high in sugar anyway.) Tomorrow is one of my favourite daysContinue reading “Why it’s awesome when things don’t go as planned”
Give me all the triathlons!
Tomorrow is the big day for our girl, Erin, and for so many others taking on the first Keji Multisport Festival and Women’s Only Triathlon and I can feel excitement while sitting at my desk typing this post. I asked Erin for some final thoughts and her texts are full of extra exclamation marks thisContinue reading “Give me all the triathlons!”
Running makes life Worth Living
One of my Facebook memories for today came from 2011 when I ran my first Greenboro Run Club 5k practice run in 35 minutes. I feel like I’ve come a long way since that day, in more ways than just my pace. When I reflect on the last 7 years I realize I’ve experienced aContinue reading “Running makes life Worth Living”
Getting tangled in eel grass. Highway traffic that’s too close for comfort. A few missed training days. There are plenty of reasons for Erin to halt her journey towards the Keji Women’s Triathlon but nothing is going to stop this gal! I checked in with her last night and like always, my conversation with herContinue reading
Why you need to follow the rules!
I get inspired at the weirdest times and last night was one of those times. Actually, it was this morning at 1:44am when I wrapped up my weekly coaching call with the Kilted Coaches. I hung up from the boys and carried on an ongoing conversation with an MMA fighter I recently connected with who’sContinue reading “Why you need to follow the rules!”
What’s your excuse?
I’m in week 5 for the Everlean Program and I’ve been doing fairly well and every week we submit a video diary which the Coaches use as part of their YouTube/Facebook video series “You’ve Been Coached”. Last week in my video I mentioned how my running schedule got off track and then I admitted thatContinue reading “What’s your excuse?”
The Secret to a Better Life
I have the secret to a better life and it’s going to blow your flippin’ mind! Get a notebook and pen and get ready for it…the secret is simply choosing to live a better life. Every morning when you wake up you are presented with choice. Do you get up right away or hit theContinue reading “The Secret to a Better Life”
Do All The Things
I thought I had my idea for the latest update on Erin’s triathlon journey when a text conversation this morning totally sent off in a new direction. I was going to focus today’s post on the connections and relationships she’s making throughout this process but the #RoadToKeji means something more than meeting new people andContinue reading “Do All The Things”
It’s time to take inventory
I’m entering Week 3 of 12 weeks of working with The Kilted Coaches and I’m seeing results. More importantly I’m feeling results. F-you scale! Let me state that while this is primarily a weight-loss program I AM NOT focused on the number on the scale. I completely understand how muscle mass weighs more than fatContinue reading “It’s time to take inventory”
