Wow. I can't believe we are already almost done with spring and into summer. Even more so, I am floored that I am into my third trimester. Granted April and the beginning of May was very hectic for us. Between putting on an Expedition Race, running my second Mama's Retreat, filming our next Acro Mastermind, … Continue reading Some thoughts on exercising while Pregnant and some of my favorite gear!

Transitions and settling in
So far this pregnancy has flown by. The first couple weeks of my pregnancy saw me in awe of it all. How it all began was like something out of a story book. And now many weeks later, I am already half way through it all. This realization actually hit me hard this last … Continue reading Transitions and settling in
Taking up a New Sport
I have taken up a new sport here in NZ. And while I know you are "not supposed" to do anything new when pregnant, I use the term "taking up" very loosely. I have started learning how to open water swim. At first it started with just a simple goal: be able to swim … Continue reading Taking up a New Sport
Sickness, Sadness and Sweetness.. my first trimester
Ever since Spirit told me I was growing his and Max's little brother or sister in my belly we have been on a whirlwind. Up until now, It has felt like when one storm settled, another one rolled in right behind it. Since I didn't have time for much else besides tending to Max, teaching, … Continue reading Sickness, Sadness and Sweetness.. my first trimester
Rainbows with messages
In my last post, I eluded to a message that Spirit B gave me in the middle of the Patagonian Race while looking out at the biggest, brightest and longest lasting rainbow I had ever witnessed. As we weaved up and down little valleys and across turbal, he was following us and saying: "Mama, this … Continue reading Rainbows with messages

Ever since we did the race back in 2010, it has been an event and place that has shaped my soul, my relationships and my connection to nature. In 2010, Jason … Continue reading Testing my limits and going past them in the Patagonian Expedition Race
Mama Guilt
Mama guilt is a real thing. I wonder if any mother gets away from it. If I am not careful it can grip me so hard it stops me in my tracks and makes it difficult to breath. It is through meditation and inviting it in to my heart space, that I have been able to … Continue reading Mama Guilt
Swarm of Lady bugs
As the wheels drop down from the airplane and we begin our descent into Bend, I look over at Jason and Max looking out the window. They are waving to Spirit and telling him that we are home. Max says "home, home, home" over and over it again and if you didn't know his … Continue reading Swarm of Lady bugs
Telluride 100: Trusting the Process
"2 minutes" The announcer calls over the intercom. I kiss my vial of Spirit B and put him safely in my pack, take a swig of water and head down to the start line of the Telluride 100 mtn bike race. My nervous jitters are finally starting to fade the closer I get to start … Continue reading Telluride 100: Trusting the Process
“My Short”
For the past couple of weeks I have been digging deep. I have been going places that make me catch my breath and makes my heart skip a beat. I have been looking at photos of my pregnancy, the day I met the hawk, and pictures of Max and Spirit B inside and outside of … Continue reading “My Short”
