Happy New Year!!
Hi Everyone,
Happy New Year!
For those waiting for the January Newsletter...it will be combined with a February letter. It will be all about weight loss. The delay is due to traveling across the world, revamping the look of the newsletter and really riding out the resolution frenzy.
Speaking of resolutions, I try not to use that term. I like to make my yearly goals and one of them this year is to personalize my blog more. I have used this blog mostly for newsletters and training tips which I will continue to do so but now I would like to share more about training, my struggles and hopefully it will help people out there understand that even the professionals struggle with exercise, health and keeping everything balanced.
After Christmas our family got an new puppy. She's a husky and loves to run. My kinda dog. I want this dog to be able to train with me. I have most often had to train alone due to my hectic schedule (how can I find a way to get a partner to fit that?). My favorite training partner is my fiance Paul but careers do not permit us to train together all of the time. My 13 year old dog just can't run anymore!
No, I don't expect my Husky Cherokee to be able to spot me on a lift but a running buddy would be nice. So far she can run over 1 km at my pace but it's a little scary having her off leash. She is 4 months old and we live in an apartment in Turkey so this exercise for her is a must and we live across the street from an awesome park (almost 2km long track). She is just in training but my hopes are to be able to use her for overspeed sprints and motivation!
If more people can use their family dog for more activity (walking, running or whatever) then maybe over half of Canada would not be overweight?
Food for thought
I'll keep you posted as to how the training goes.
Train on.
