The weather was HOT, but this group was on FIRE 🤯🔥 Always love hanging out with this crew and meeting even more jumpers in the community - motivated now more than ever to share the love for this sport with others, and to bring that to other activities in my life as well 🙌

I've got nothing to hide here - hope it's obvious that I love jump rope 😊

Full Marathon checked off the bucket list! ✅

After making a disheartening choice to not attend the in-person race after my injury and switching to virtual, I finally took the sunny window of opportunity to go and do my marathon. Amongst all the physical activity I do, I must say that this was the most physically and mentally draining event I have done in a long time. During my run, I had some reflections about my marathon experience, and I wanted to share my thoughts here 😊

1. Create small milestones for things that you want to achieve during the run, and the key is ensuring they’re realistic and use it as a motivator;
2. Don’t forget to look ahead to avoid traffic jams and slowing your pace, especially when there’s a lot of people walking both ways;
3. Have deliberate breaks to drink water or to get a good stretch in after you’ve been in the same rhythm for a while now;
4. Make sure all your devices are fully charged for things like your music, and especially your phone so that people know where you are;
5. Take care of yourself and know what your limits are and don’t push them, even if that means that you don’t meet your goals or milestones – your health is most important, and it will be a great achievement regardless of the results! 🏆

The Roomies Go Zoom Zoom 🏃🏅

It was great to go out and do some running today on the 50th anniversary for the ! A very well organized and fun event! Will eventually do the full marathon later this month since I switched it to virtual, but I'm glad to have participated in all the in-person festivities this year - more challenges await for the month of May! 🔥

Meetups are amazing ✨ If you ever get the chance to do a fun activity with your community, then I highly recommend checking it out! Looking forward to the next one - if you're in the Vancouver area, check out for future updates for our next meetups! ☺️

3RD ANNUAL CHALLENGE! 👏

I'm happy to announce that I will be pursuing the for a third year, with a focus this year on community, bringing people together, and continuing to raise awareness about mental health. I will be raising funds for the BC Mental Health Foundation - more details to come closer to May 27th! Stay tuned for all the details and fun highlights over the next month! 🥳

Did a lot of running over the weekend, and I'm glad that I managed to do the virtual and in-person Vancouver Sun Run experiences this year! Training slowed down a lot in the past month, but a lot of self-care and support from everyone means the world to me! Onwards to the next race and the upcoming ! ☀️

When the hiking stamina was there from this summer, although I'm glad to give my knees some well deserved rest this fall after the weekly hikes 😅
