It's Friday people! And the sun is shining to boot! Here are a few video's to lighten your load and inspire you to tackle your adventures this weekend! Enjoy!
Check out 'Simmons and Vanderham' in Rocky Mountains most viewed video...it will have you cutting out of work early to hit the trails today!
Banzai Pipeline Winter 2013. Eric Sterman takes us into the sky and above the break on the North Shore of Oahu. Amazing video of North Shore surfing from the view of a drone camera. Even if you have never surfed a wave in your life, you will enjoy the cinematography.
Mega from behind from Ralf Shupp. Follow behind the final racer, to witness the carnage from this insane mountain bike race in France. Thanks to the folks at The Adventure Blog for sharing this one!
'How to be a road biker' from NSMB. Awesome follow up to their classic 'How to be a mountain biker'. You must watch these if you spend time on two wheels:).
AGING AND
FITNESS
BY
SARAH SEADS
Aging
is part of life.
We
cannot stop our chronological age from progressing year after year.
We can, however, slow down the speed of our biological aging through
changes to our lifestyle including physical fitness. Working in
fitness and health for close to 20 years, I have seen 80 year old’s
who are as active and fit as 50 year old’s. I have also seen far
too many 50 year old’s acting as if they are 80+ and giving into
the negative idea of 'being too old for___' .
Happy Friday!
Whether you are planning to run an ultra, ride with your friends, head up the mountain or get out for a walk with your dog, these videos will provide fuel for your adventures this weekend! Like the blog? Feel free to share with your friends!
Enjoy!

A very cold story indeed. Follow European mountain bikers Ausilia Vistarini and Sebastiano Favaro on their wild journey over the 1800 km (1100 mile) Iditarod trail in the dead of winter.

Hello!
Back to work after xmas break for me means a fully booked calendar, assessments and re-asssessments, new goals, new programs and navigating through gyms bursting with ambitious resolutioners, high on powerful 'new year-new you' motivation. The energy is high, the humidity is up and the contraindicated moves are in full effect! I love January!
Many years ago I learned to never give advice in the gym unless I have been asked to do so- but this is my blog so I am gonna give some right here lol;) It's Open Season at the Gym so I thought I would have a little fun with it...don't take me too seriously...but SERIOUSLY!
