Beautiful day in the Bow Valley yesterday ✨ Trail time with the babe and @mtncathryn

I have a kinesiology background, which has only heighten my fascination with the human body, and muscle development. As a result I’m curious to see what muscular changes will take place in my body this hiking season, as I carry my babe on as many mountain adventures as I can. Maybe I should measure my quads now, and report back in the fall

I have no words for the colorful streets of Rome. We booked an airbnb for 3 nights in Trastevere (my favorite neighborhood I have EVER seen), but last minute we booked another night in the main part of town. Rome (like most places in Italy) is done best s l o w l y, and I’m so glad we had the chance to 1. see the highlights, but also 2. just walk around and find our favorite cafe’s, pizza, and doors like this one
Kids are hard on gear right! And their feet grow so stinkin’ fast! Sometimes I feel like I am in a continual cycle of buying new shoes for my kids! “What, you grew out of your winter boots in March!? We live in Canada! That is sooo not allowed! You gotta squeeze in those puppies for at least another month girl!!” New running shoes? Didn’t we get a pair like last month But proper footwear is one thing that we feel strongly about and no matter what, I want our kids feet to be supported! »
Last month I did a whole series on what gear we use for hiking. If you have followed us, you will know that Matt and I are huge @zamberlan_outdoor fans. We have both had our Zamberlan hiking boots for 11 years and they are still as awesome as ever! After talking about our love affair with Zamberlan , we were asked to try out their new Quantum GTX kids hiking boot. Sweet!! This is our first official gear review guys! So, what did we think? Honest opinions... »
We tried them out on the trails on Vancouver Island where the conditions can be tricky: Wet slippery logs and rocks, uneven root filled trails, and rain. And guys, they were awesome! They totally stood up to the test! What we loved: »
Rugged vibram soles stood up to the slipperiest conditions we could throw at them!
Gore-tex waterproof liner made them completely waterproof yet breathable.
Fantastic ankle support while still being lightweight and flexible to wear. »
Things to note:
The sizing is different than we are used to. They fit really small and we had to go up 2 sizes in order to get the right fit. »
Would we recommend them? Yes! #ad #gifted

We’re all addicts, let me explain. Can you:
-
Sit and know you’re sitting
-
Walk and know you’re walking
-
Eat and know you’re eating
-
Love and know you’re loving
-
Sounds kinda crazy huh? but I guarantee you don’t actually know when you’re doing any of these. Try it!
-
Sit down and close your eyes. How do you KNOW that you’re sitting? If I told you that you were actually running, how would you know that I’m lying? What are the bodily sensations that your brain receives to let you know that you’re sitting?
-
And if you’re wondering why would you ever care about such a thing, it’s believed that if you can sit and know you’re sitting, the whole of the dharma will be revealed to you aka you get enlightened which sounds pretty rad.
-
Can you imagine experiencing love and actually being able to perceive all of the sensations that create the feeling? There is so much richness there and yet we have no fucking clue! We just jump to the label “love” and then rush on to the next feeling tone, like addicts always looking for the next hit. Now that’s crazy to me.
