Hanoucca est connue par les Juifs comme « la fête des Lumières ». En effet, la fête se déroule autour de l’allumage de 8 bougies, une chaque jour de la fête. Elle commémore la protection de Dieu aux Israélites et les miracles qui se sont produits à la même époque de l’année, il y a plus de 15-20 ans comme mentionnait Jeremy ce matin 🙂
In discussing the upcoming NP Snow Globe event (previously Snow Summit – in Syracuse, NY this January 18-20, 2019), some prospective participants identified that dressing for a winter event felt daunting. Now, I’m from the prairies where we like to extol our “dry cold”, but the fact of the matter is, I’d rather run in the sunshine, dressed in shorts, with a cool spring breeze. But I live in Canada, so those ideal running conditions have a restricted window.
Nous avons la chance à November Project Montréal de fêter notre anniversaire deux fois par année. Notre premier demi-anniversaire est le 23 novembre – la date du tout premier entrainement de groupe que nous avons eu à Montréal sous le nom de Projet Sweat Montréal. Nous étions environ une dizaine de personnes à ce tout premier rendez-vous en novembre 2016 à s’entrainer dans le Vieux-Port de Montréal. Nous étions plus jeunes, plus naïfs et surtout gonflés à bloc pour partir le mouvement November Project à Montréal.
This summer I had the pleasure of driving from Montreal to Edmonton. I dreamed up this solo road trip in the midst of a research internship in Ethiopia, looking to explore some new cities on my home continent. In plotting my course, I assumed I would stop in Chicago (on a Wednesday) and Winnipeg (on a Friday) so that I could attend their November Project workouts. I specifically shifted other legs of my journey to make it to these locations in time to work out with a bunch of strangers… except they don’t feel like strangers.
La fondation Movember est le seul organisme philanthropique à s’attaquer à certains des plus grands problèmes de santé des hommes : le cancer de la prostate, le cancer testiculaire, la santé mentale et la prévention du suicide. Elle nous rappelle à chaque année au mois de novembre comment il est important de travailler ensemble pour combattre la stigmatisation qui dissuade les hommes de parler de leur santé mentale et de chercher de l’aide en cas de problème.
Today was an excellent day to be a kid again, embrace adult recess, appreciate our bodies, and strengthen our community… all before 8 a.m.! What a thrill! For Halloween, the tribe showed up in costume this morning and it got me introspecting into all we get from CHOOSING to be a part of November Project.
The weather is getting cooler, and I don’t need to remind you that the days are getting darker (literally, not literarily). I find myself stating the obvious each day, and it’s stealing my joy of the wonder that is fall time, people! It’s majestic, and it’s beautiful, and I’m going to convince you to embrace this and all that is to come! Because there are no bad months, and no bad seasons (and while I respect your right to have preferences and your individual opinion) – Autumn is awesome and here’s a list to prove it.
We believe barriers to fitness shouldn't exist, one of the reasons we are a free fitness group (no money in, no money out) and our members don't pay any fees. Because of this, we need your help.
Bonjour/Hi, I’m LC, and I’m the very grateful and equally stoked, new co-lead for November Project Montreal. I’m a teacher, originally from Edmonton, currently in Montreal working on a Masters of Arts at McGill University. I do research in teacher education and also, peer mentorship for individuals with spinal cord injuries. Prior to this, I was a teacher and community volunteer.
