Thursday Jul 08, 2021
It's time to go for a walk in the woods. Whether you call it hiking or trekking, anytime you go for a long walk in the dirt, you enter the world of nature, fitness, and self-reflection. Hiking is the experience you make it. It's a chance to distress, exercise, and enjoy a forest bath all at the same time.

What's got two wheels and goes BRRRRRR? Why us of course. Join us as we talk about hitting the dirt on our mountain bikes. Like most of the activities, we cover Winston has been doing it since the 1980s (Yes, he is old) and Catharine has started relatively recently. It works well to get the perspective from a new rider and the guy who used to race and own a bike shop.

Ep. 46 Don't Let Winter Keep You Inside
Wednesday Nov 25, 2020
Wednesday Nov 25, 2020
We can complain about how things aren't like they used to be or we can adapt to the challenge and find new things to do. This episode we talk about how to make this winter a fun adventure even though it will mean that many of us have to do things differently.
We talk about embracing outdoor winter sports as they are fun and inherently socially distant. From snowshoeing and cross country skiing to ice climbing and winter camping, don't let Covid keep you from having a great season. We also hit upon some tips to help with the
winter blues and keep on top of your mental health.
While it means having to wear long pants, we've learned to love the challenges that winter brings. Give a listen and find a new winter passion of your own.
