NP Guest Blog (3/11/24)

Many of us have similar first day stories. We watched on socials, delayed those early morning alarms, uncertain about this 6am grass roots fitness group. Something about those first few workouts melted away those nerves & drew us into the NP community. 

I love sweating, laughing and sharing the sense of accomplishment in the darkness & (sometimes) watching the sunrise with my NP friends & family. I am grateful to the people who helped me feel welcome, tapped my foot for partner workouts & encouraged me especially in those early days.  read more

Vlog 2/16/24 (YEG)

keep being awesome,

Rob

Monday: SUNRISE 6k!!!!! Park at kinsmen and meet at the north west side of Walterdale hill! We wait for everyone to finish so bring some extra layers/jackets. I’ll be at the start/finish line the entire time so nothing will be left unattended.

Behind the scenes Eric and I spent an afternoon thinking of all the silly universally bad ways a date can go. I will neither confirm nor deny that some of those examples were from real experiences. Out of the big list we came up with at least I’ve never had someone pick their nose on a date….thankfully!! read more

Cold is cold (YEG)

After a weekend of “feels like” temps in the -40 and -50s I thought a balmy -20 temp would feel amazing………it did not. Cold is still cold. I am very happy to be seeing forecasts of warmer temps. Not having three layers of pants on will definitely make me move easier. That said I can never forget this Rick Mecer skit and think that they are just trying to make us feel better read more
