I realize it has been an extremely long time since my last (and only) post. I apologize. I have been very busy (I know that is what everyone says, but it is true)!
A quick update since my last post:
I was immersed in an online course that certifies me to teach Family Studies. It allows me to teach nutrition! What an incredible opportunity!
For Canada Day, Mike, a friend and myself, drove to Vancouver! It was a fabulous trip (just a long car ride!).

I traveled to Mount Robson and did an incredible hike. I also went to Banff, Canmore and hiked up a long trail in Lake Louise. It was an fantastic week. Canada is such a beautiful country.

Most recently, Mike and I drove up to the Northwest Territories. We clocked in on more than 3,270 kilometres (in less than one week)! We traveled from Edmonton to Yellowknife, Yellowknife to Wood Buffalo National Park and then back to Edmonton. It was an amazing journey. We weren't too sure what to expect, and wanted to go and explore the unknown. I would go back, but I would fly (I cannot sit for long hours in the car) and do a four to five day canoe trip around the lakes.
I tried my best to stay active while in the car by doing jack knives, leg raises, tricep dips, and lots of stretching (when I was the passenger!). I also ran around at every stop to get the blood flowing. Of course, I threw in a few quick 20s.

It is sunny and warm outside, I am in desperate need to get outside and get active. Have a wonderful day!
Definition of Quick 20: Complete 20 repetitions of a specific exercise. Example, "Quick 20 Pushups." Get on your hands and feet and complete 20 pushups. Now. So good. You may see me tweet them every so often.
