🚴‍♀️ 150km over 2 Days - Done! 🚴‍♀️
This weekend I took on the MS Bike Tour: 75km each day through Windsor, Gaspereau, and Wolfville. With the support of many of you our team of five riders raised over $30000.00 to go toward MS research.
This was a ride that reminded me loud and clear that my body is way stronger than my brain sometimes thinks it is.

Day 1 was full of hills that challenged me both physically and mentally, but every sweet downhill felt like a gift, and the views at the top were absolutely breathtaking and worth every climb. My team, The Cycleholics, cheered and sang each other along the whole way, making the ride as fun as it was tough.

Day 2 had a slightly different course, but I still wasn’t sure how far I could go. On the night of day 1, I messaged of .endurance , worried about tackling another day. She reminded me: “It’s all a process. Enjoy it for what it is, and learn what you can from the experience.”

I started with that mindset on day 2 and to my surprise, I went the whole way. There were moments when the air was still, the scenery was beautiful, and I remembered how much I truly enjoy riding. And then… crossing the finish line to see my child, my husband, and my dog waiting for me made it all worth it.

As someone who lives in a full-bodied frame, I’ve often taken myself out of things I thought I couldn’t do. This weekend was proof that I can. And I did. 💪❤️

Another event, another ride!

In the lead-up to these events, there are always moments where the doubt creeps in.
What am I doing here? Do I even belong?

The imposter syndrome is loud. It whispers that I don’t look the part, that I’m not fit enough, fast enough, strong enough.

That maybe everyone else will see it too.

And yet… I show up anyway.
And I sign up again. And again.

Maybe I do it to prove to the world that I am enough.
Maybe it’s to remind myself that me, in this body, right now, is already worthy.
Or maybe it’s to quietly push back on the idea that there’s even such a thing as fit enough or strong enough.

Because maybe just showing up, exactly as you are, is enough.

So today I ride. Not because I have something to prove, but because today I’m choosing to believe I don’t. .endurance

Busting out the .endurance gear today- even though I almost didn’t.
I put off my swim alllll morning. You know those days where motivation is at a full zero? That was me. But then I heard voice in my head: “Something is better than nothing.”
So I got up. I suited up. And I took it one meter at a time.
Sometimes the hardest part of the whole workout is literally getting the wetsuit on.
This is the reminder that small efforts still count big. 💙💪

A friend sent me this today and it was too nice not to share:) I’ve had a couple questions about eggs lately but unfortunately with all the cold they aren’t laying so we are on a shortage

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to organize a Puzzle Competition Fundraiser to support MS Canada as part of my participation in the 2025 MS Bike Tour, and I’m looking for a venue to host the event!
I’m hoping to find a community hall, church hall, or space that would be willing to donate their space or perhaps reduce the cost allowing for more of the proceeds to go directly to MS Canada help make this fundraiser a success. The event will bring the community together for a fun puzzle competition, with all proceeds going directly to MS Canada to support research, programs, and services for those living with Multiple Sclerosis.
If you or someone you know has a space that could accommodate 40ish people, or if you have suggestions for a location that might be interested in donating, please reach out! The generosity of the venue will be publicly recognized throughout the event and on promotional materials, making it a great opportunity for community exposure and goodwill.
You can comment below or message me directly! If you're an avid puzzler and want to join the team competition, stay tuned!!
Thank you so much for your support—I truly appreciate any help in making this event happen! ❤️

Our hearts are heavy today as we process the devastating loss caused by this tragic fire. As parents and members of this community, we are heartbroken for the families involved.

Delaney Acres and firefighting are deeply intertwined with our lives. Every shift, as Jeremy leaves, I’m reminded that in moments of unimaginable difficulty, he and his fellow first responders are the ones who step into the fire—literally and figuratively—without hesitation.

We are endlessly proud of the work Jeremy does and the courage all first responders show in the face of such heartbreaking situations. Our thoughts and every part of our hearts are with the families affected by this unimaginable loss.

We are heartbroken by this morning’s devastating house fire in Lower Sackville. Our thoughts are with the family, friends, community and our members during this difficult time.
