In the fall of 2018, I found myself in a situation that is unfortunately all too common—being in a caregiver role for a loved one. For those who have ridden the roller coaster of having a sick partner, family member or loved one, you know all too well the deep lows and heavy days that can come along with that.

The Solstice Challenge doesn’t have to be done non-stop or on one machine type, so it’s a great opportunity to get creative in your workout planning. You can even include on water rowing or on snow skiing if either of those are available to you. Continue Reading ›
The Zoom call rang once, then twice, and then Kate Hunt answered. She was sitting on a BikeErg, cooling down from an early morning workout. Kate is recovering from knee surgery and just completed a 10k workout. “I go to a few classes per week, which is good because it makes me work a little harder,” she says. And the hard work is necessary because Kate’s aim is another iron-distance triathlon: a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and 26.2 mile run endurance event.
