Words

I originally went to university to become a photo journalist.  Somehow, along the way, between planting tree's, a busted back, travelling around the world and fighting forest fires in the wilds of British Columbia, I made my way out of UVic as an enthusiastic Kinesiologist, instead.  My passions have since merged and I now share my energy between 3 loves: Fitness, Photography and Writing.  I am looking forward to discovering where this journey takes me.  Thanks for coming along for the ride!

Musings
Spending days on end in the mountains can liberate your thoughts and free up your mind.  Sometimes I put these moments of clarity on paper, so to speak.  Lately I have been journaling more of my musings over on my Wildseads Instagram page...come say hi over there!

Race Reports
This blog started as a way to journal my adventures, including my race tales.  I write my race reports straight from the heart- you won't find any edits there.

Gear Reviews
My opinion on the latest gear from shoes to energy bars and everything in between.

Books
I am proud to say I am a self-published author of two books.  My fourth passion, food, led me to write my very own cookbook,  NRG: Foods that will move you.  Check out the Recipe's Collection or order your own copy of NRG as an e-book or hard copy cookbook.

Fit & Free: Seven Steps to Achieving Fitness For Life.  This book combines all of my motivation secrets into a step by step program for sticking with fitness, for life!
