The Hypothermic Half Marathon: Kick Your New Year's Resolution in the Butt

I cannot think of a better way to start off the year by running in, or volunteering at The Hypothermic Half Marathon in Calgary February 11th. If you can get through 21.1 km of running in a Calgary winter- you can do ANYTHING. 2012 is about going above and beyond your new year's resolutions- so DO IT NOW! If you don't feel like you have enough time to prepare now- volunteer! I volunteered three years in a row for races, and on the 4th year I ran an 8km race and the 5th year I ran a half marathon. Being around inspirational runners and seeing their faces when they cross the finish line is the push a lot of people need- including me, to see how amazing it feels to accomplish something so great. So... GO!! Go and cheer, go and help, just go and give support to these amazing athletes- these TRUE Canadians!
Currently, they need 2:00 pace bunny's, marshals, water station personal, start/finish line personal and lead/sweep cyclists. You can contact Bruce Cevraini for more information about how to help out at BCevraini@runningroom.com
We are a community Calgary- let's show our neighbors some support!! I can promise you if you put in even a few hours of volunteer, you will be so inspired for the rest of the day and not be able to wipe the smile of your face. :)

How to Navigate your way through the Apple Nirvana

O hey there! New to this blog? Or just having trouble finding your way around?? No problem! This will hopefully help!

If you want to read a review of a fitness facility I have written about, click on the name of the gym, studio, etc. on the right side of the page under the heading "Which facility/workout would you like to know more about?".

If you want to read a recipe I have tried and written about, click on the name of it on the right side of the page under "Playing with your Food". There are images below the links of the recipes!

On the left hand side of the page, are photos of Shay Dodd's AthLEAN-X challenge. AND if you want to read about his journey, click on "AthLEAN-X" under "Fitness Facilities Reviewed".

I also have short videos each month (in 2011 it was each week) broadcasting an inspirational health and fitness enthusiast from the community and they can all be watched under "I.H.F.E" reel on the left side of the page.

The middle of the page are all of the most recent reviews and posts I have done. If you are looking for one specifically, you can click on "The Apple Archives" on the left side of the page.

There is a link on the top of the page to follow Apple Nirvana on twitter and a link on the bottom to subscribe to this blog.

Directly below this post, is live updates from my twitter account.

Good luck in navigating your way through!!

Putting AthLEAN-X to the test with Shay Dodds

P90X may have been all the rage, but apparently athLEAN-X is where it's at. AthLEAN-X is less expensive, 1/3 of the workout length, and 4-5 days a week instead of 6-7. There are new workouts weekly with AthLEAN-X and it claims to have 'guy-friendly' meal plans. But instead of taking the website's word for it, Shay Dodds is putting it to the test over the next 6-8 weeks. Every Saturday I will be posting up pictures and a short review from Shay of his progress. Check out weekly and who knows, maybe this is the workout plan for you!
