BE THE CHANGE

[dogg2099]

After a week of battling a nasty cold/flu I'm almost back to being myself. Everything I had planned last weekend for my time off training wise was thrown out and replaced with laying on the couch, miserable while being comforted by my loyal pooch. I'm starting to realize that in my older years I need to be more preventive when it comes to getting sick. I'll definitely be looking into what I can add to my diet to improve my immune system and be more careful with the little things ( make sure the hair in dry when leaving the pool in the middle of winter ). Another day of rest and it'll be back to the grind of training. #takecareofyourself #behealthy #healthyliving #training #spartanracecanada #srcba23 #spartancanadaambassador #positivity #positivementalattitude https://www.instagram.com/p/CpBSnf6S25j/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

3 days of work and a 3 day weekend after that. This means putting in the work before and after work this weekend. Then spending time on the trails putting on some serious kms. I have some pretty high goals set for this weekend. Set goals. Stick to em' That simple. #training #putinthework #workhard #beyourbestself #marathontraining #spartanracecanada #spartancanadaambassador #srcba23 #beunbreakable #unbreakable #positivity #positivementalattitude https://www.instagram.com/p/CovFylMyF4I/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I've always had a fascination with sport climbing and bouldering. I've been drawn to the physical aspects of the sport have always been blown away by the big stars in the sport. Although not ideal location wise I've decided to add sport climbing to the list of outdoor activities I do. Fortunately we have a couple of awesome facilities in town. Collicut has a bouldering section and a couple of awesome climbing walls. Plus @trailheadclimbingandfitness is a deadly facility as well. Me and a buddy will be going to trailhead on Monday from 7 to 9 to take the belay course and plan on doing a weekly visit to the climbing gym with goal of hopefully doing some simple pitch climbing in the Summer in the mountains. If anyone is interested in joining us for the belay course you're more than welcome. 7:00pm at Trailhead this Monday. Cost is $30.00 If I can gain an interest in doing some climbing I'd love to start a group and maybe plan gym climbing together and maybe some mountains adventures. Drop me a DM if you're interested. #climbing #sportclimbing #rockclimbing #outdooradventures #gymclimbing #natureiscoming #getoutside #trailheadclimbingandfitness #beyourbestself https://www.instagram.com/p/CogYOpbrHNN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Almost 80 percent of people that start going to the gym or adopting exercise into their lives will quit after 3 months because they don't see immediate results. It's a long hard road that takes discipline, grit and mental toughness. Stick to that regimen. Stick to that diet. The long term positive effects outweigh everything else.

As someone who has dealt with depression and anxiety in the past I can say the lifestyle that I have adopted has helped me through my tough times in more ways than one. Racing and training has taught me discipline, focus and the courage to face anything. It's helped teach me how to fuel my body better, to get better rest, to avoid stress when I can and to be mindful about how I feel as a whole. Never sacrificing my mental and physical health for other things. I learned to reach down and help my fellow humans out of the muck and mud that life can throw at us as well. I've become stronger, wiser and I'm learning to be more patient. I'll always be thankful for this sport, this lifestyle that I now live and what I gained from it up till now. And what I will gain in the future. I Am Spartan AROO!! @spartan @spartanracecanada @spartanrace #srcba23 #spartanracecanada #spartancanadaambassador #spartan #unbreakable #beunbreakable #positivity #positiveliving #positivementalattitude #beyourbestself #dohardshit https://www.instagram.com/p/CnxWl0vysgR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In the words of The Rock "Enjoy your cheat meals my friends" 20 days of eating clean has led to this epic cheat meal breakfast 4 eggs scrambled 4 Sausages Hollandaise And a fruit smoothie to wash it all down. A little Cross Country Skiing later should burn that all off right? 😉 This set up doesn't stand a chance. #cheatmeal #dieting #healthyliving #healthylifestyle #gottaindulgesometimes #beyourbestself #positivementalattitude #positivity #positiveliving #behappy (at Base Camp X) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnuh7UYvX9i/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some days are sketchy. They can be exhausting with work and training so I keep my Nuun Vitamins with Caffeine at arms reach. Giving my body the electrolytes I need, sipping on this throughout the day keeps me going. @nuunhydration Looking for Nuun? DM me and I can give you a list of local retailers that carry it. #teamnuun2023 #TeamNuun #nuunlove #nuunlife #hydrate #hydration #nuunambassador (at Red Deer, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnnKH6aSV2y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Treated myself to some new cross country ski poles today. Looking forward to hitting the trails on Sunday. Not only is cross country skiing a great way to enjoy some quiet nature time but it's an awesome workout as well. One of my favorite winter activities. #wintersports #crosscountryskiing #getoutside #healtyhabits #spartantraining #srcba22 #wintertime #natureiscoming #lovenature (at Base Camp X) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClAiBkIrL7n/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
