Hi Eric - all good thanks & appreciate you asking. Been doing some decorating over the Easter Holiday so had some time to think through the last race. Now focusing on the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October. I put some thoughts about the last race on my blog 1:25@50 - mainly around tweaking and focusing on my speed zone 3 targets. But the mojo is back and am really excited about the October race. Once again many thanks for all the support and encouragment - it's really appreciated. Cheers - Rich

LOL. Eric I live in Northern BC so we are just getting our snow.  By Dec we will be looking at FEET of snow and usually -20.  Jan/Feb can get as cold as -40 with wind chill making it -50.  BUT we get lots of chinooks and sunshine;)  I hate the hampster wheel so when I can, I will be running on trails and dressing warm;)  It is beautiful but cold;)  I will have to experiment with layering and have lots of merino wool;)  Once I get going, you will have to come for a ice run....lol...last year my Tough Mudder team decided in Jan we would go for a hike through the trails, at a mere -20.  I couldnt feel my legs by the time we were done;)  Good times!!  Canadian Chicks are Crazy they say...I tend to agree.  I will get the slant boards and see where that takes me and proceed from there.  Thanks!

 Hey Eric.  Thanks for the feedback.  I have been looking into getting the slant board and stability disk.  I can get the board from you but you are out of the disks and I cannot find anything thats close.  I have what they call the balance (or dyna) disk but its not even close.  Any suggestions?  Or is there an ETA on yours?  :)

That race looks pretty awesome Amber! A great goal race and plenty of time to train. I live in small town too, so have to order and send back products! Ultimate Direction has been a good brand for me packs and handhelds. I have been using the Wisp hydration pack.

 Thank you for the quick reply Eric!  I am tryig to focus on just the things I need right now, then start with a good basis of knowledge so I dont hurt myself or get discouraged.  Unfortunately, I live in a small town so I cant go try things on etc, so I need to do some homework.  I have a small hydration pack, some sport beans, good shoes (I think), and some kisk-ass support (from the couch!).  The CDR registration is the 23 Jan (I think, it hasnt been officially announced but thats the guess).  I have given myself until then to see how I feel and see if I think I`m totally nuts or just nuts;)  Thanks for your time;)

Hi Eric,

I'm looking for the YouTube videos that use to be up involving stretching and exercises, they involved exercise balls, jumping, etc. I would like to share them with a friend but they are not in the video section anymore, or on your YouTube page. Also, I'm still getting used to it, but I dig the new site!
