  1. I am confirmed for first sailing session of 2026 season with #AbleSailVictoria - May 6th! ⛵️
    Able Sail Victoria is part of Able Sail Canada - nonprofit organization that offers subsidized #AdaptiveSailing for #PeopleWithDisabilities.
    I missed almost all of 2025 season & keen to get on the waters more often, this season.

    This year, I'll be learning more on the Sonar since I'm already very familiar with the Martin 16 sailboats. I'll also be sailing out of Sidney North Saanich Yacht Club more often. I only sailed out of RVYC Cadboro Bay area in past couple of years with Able Sail program. I also signed up for their new subsidized CANSAIL certification program, in August. That program will be run out of RVYC only. I want to get certification to be able to compete in a future Mobility Cup regatta 😀

    Also: Able Sail Victoria is getting behind the movement afoot to bring the #MobilityCup to the West Coast in 2027! #VictoriaBC has hosted the event at the Canadian Forces Sailing Association’s marina in the past and hopefully, this or another venue will be available to us in the near future!

  2. Here Are 3 Essential Stretches That Undo Hours of Sitting, According To a Personal Trainer 

    Getty Images I am calling all desk workers to read on if you want to undo the effects of sitting all day, because these three stretches are effective and essential, and could just save your hips. The hip flexor muscles run down the front of the body between the hip bones and thighs and help you lift your legs up, hinge forward at the hips and assist with movement like running, bending, jumping, or walking properly. When contracted or shortened, the distance between the thigh and torso […]

  3. Don't let the midday slump get you down! Take a short walk outside to recharge and refocus your mind. #StayActive

  4. A massive study of over 2M people aged 20–97 shows regular physical activity reduces mortality risk at all stages of life. The impact is most notable in older adults: for those 80+, meeting activity recommendations cuts mortality risk by 22%.

    Health advice is simple: 7.5 MET-hours/week, equal to ~30 mins brisk walking 5 days a week. Whether it's table tennis or running - consistency matters most.

  5. My fifth consecutive year of "no zero days" is coming to an end at the end of December. A "zero day", for me, is a day without organized physical activity.

    It doesn't have to be the gym or running, it can be just setting off on a decent length walk or doing a few hours of garden work.

    Or, as the case was today, clearing two driveways from 30cm wet and heavy snow manually 🌨️ ☃️

    Current step count for 2024 is 4,004,528 😊

  6. 💡 Did you know? Athletes outperform non-athletes in working memory tasks, thanks to the cognitive challenges of sports! A recent meta-analysis shows how physical activity boosts mental agility, benefiting areas like problem-solving and focus—even off the field. Ready to sharpen your mind and body? 🏋️‍♀️⚽🧠

  7. Awesome news 😀 I got early notice that my application for 2025 VISSA program was processed & I've been accepted to participate. I'm participating in annual Herb Bradley Snowsports Festival - with all gear & lessons covered for Nordic. I haven't tried their Nordic program yet & am stoked to learn! I booked a day for more sitski training too - it's only $10 for program participants.

    Ojistoh, my Mohawk sister-friend, is going with me as my support friend & personal assistant.

    I am SO EXCITED!
    It's been 4 years since I was last able to participate in adaptive snowsports!

    These photos are from my lessons in 2020.

  8. I'll find out in November if I will get a spot at 2025 VISSA at Mt. Washington. I want to try out their adaptive Nordic program, if I get in. I also want to practice more sitski because I'm interested in doing races if I can get good enough to qualify for competitive racing in the future. I loved riding it down from the Eagle lift summit a few times when I was accepted into program in 2020.

    I love Winter & being up on the mountains in snow. I just don't have many opportunities to go up mountains in snowy Winter.

  9. Excellent 2nd #AdaptiveSailing session today! My instructor today, Kate, is very knowledgeable & keen to help me learn more so I can enter future Mobility Cup regattas. I manned sailboat for almost full session today & she gave me guidance only when needed. There was more breezes so we didn't need to be towed out or back. My next session is on August 4th 😊⛵️

    Lunching with Mom on back deck before we get some gardening tasks done 👩‍🌾 Heading to the Indigenous Music Festival around 5:30pm 🎶🎵 Hampton Park is only 5 minutes from our home & starts at 6pm.
