Every year since Anika has been born I've been in Austria competing at @hypomeeting_goetzis the last week of May; this year I could celebrate Anika's birthday on her actual bday! Happy 8th birthday Monkey π xo

My daughter Anika seems pretty excited about my new job, so am I π Hmm...wait, that means I'll probably be at work all the time; even when I'm off duty I'll be chasing this monkey around Injanation π
Click "my story" for 1st failed attempt at 14 foot warped wall (think I might have peed myself slightly π ) Just one of many movement challenges I get to explore on my new job @injanation ! Thrilled to be a part of a supportive team of passionate individuals; we're so ready to get these doors open to the public π #injanation #ninjawarror #warpedwall #yycfitfam #yycfitness
When the only way out of discomfort is to be with it. Sitting with pain and lactic after a brutal hill workout. Sometimes even in the most defeating state of exhaustion I feel the most alive; feeling my heart pound, connecting to my breath, feeling the support of life around me- the warmth of the sun on my face, the scent of fall and the reminder that everything is in a constant state of change and this too shall pass. #training #discomfort #stillness #life #pain #breath #connection
Kickboxing (or whatever I'm trying to attempt) ain't making the cut!...The search for my next craft continues πΉ
Joined many fellow Olympians at Sport Calgary's Celebration of Sport annual luncheon- even made some serious contact with Erica Wiebe's 2016 Olympic GOLD medal, truly an inspiration!

Looks like I'll be sending myself back to the wall to practise my handstands! I'll update progress in 3 weeks. #newproject #handstand #core #training #progression
Started coaching with a local track club this fall. On this fine snowy morning only 1 of 15 showed up π¬, so we did what any reasonable sprinter would do and ran to the nearest coffee shop! I took this opportunity to learn more about my athlete(s), to get feedback and to get a better understanding behind what motivates Brighid. #yycrun #coaching #track #workout #realwork
Felt like playing today, so I tried something @ritual_mike posted on Insta. Deceivingly tricky- great for coordination, control, balance and strength...and soooo much fun π #training #play #balance #strength #coordination #fitness #olympian @gmbfitness

Warming up at the Terry Fox Run in Calgary this morning! Great turn out; it was a beautiful day to celebrate a Canadian hero and his legacy that continues to bring people together in the spirit of hope and determination in the face of life's challenges. Thank you Terry ππΌ #terryfox #terryfoxrun #terryfoxrunyyc #yyc
I'll be joining the 5 million who will be participating in the Terry Fox Run across the globe in support of cancer research. I'm running for all those who have been affected by cancer, including my "deda" (grandfather) who passed away from lung cancer. My deda immigrated to Canada from Croatia, worked in the lumbar industry in northern Ontario, then found a Croatian community in Schumacher Ontario where he worked as a black smith in the mine. Growing up I saw through him the value of working hard, in being a part of a community, and in never losing sight of how fortunate it is to be living in a country like Canada. I'll be at Telus Spark tomorrow, as the Ambassador the Calgary Terry Fox Run @terryfoxcalgary Come join!
