  1. Accept No Limitations

    Accept No Limitations

    Louise Landry is nothing short of inspirations as we talk about how she will accept no limitations. At age 56, a stroke survivor and more active than people half her age, Louise continues to push her limits and inspire those around her. Louise has been a part of Monthly Membership since is started over a year ago (at the time of this post/recording) and has been with us for whole food detoxes before hand. Along with workouts throughout the week, weekly yoga and NIA classes Louise stays active all the time. As a stroke survivor and limitations in eye sight and her left arm Louise doesn’t let anything hold her back, in fact you might say she does more than the average person regardless of what limitation might be put in front of her. Dorothy and I traveled to Lethbridge to run with Louise for her first 5K after training for only 4 months. She’ll tell you herself she doesn’t love running, but I think the challenge is what keeps her going. She actually signed up for another 5k that she hopes to run in the winter to raise money for the food bank. In this interview I asked Louise if she had any advice for someone that might say they are too old to set a new goal or go after something that might interest them. She said, ‘give it a shot, there’s always a way around any limitation you may seem to have. Take it slow, schedule your workouts in and work progressively toward your goals‘. Truly an inspiration. Thank you for all that you do Louise, we couldn’t be happier we found you.

    Leoni Kelly World Championship Triathlon Training

    I am blessed to be a happily married wife, mother of 3 children , physician and triathlete. I truly believe exercise is medicine. Exercise and my faith has carried me through very deep valleys in my life. In combination with healthy eating, exercise is the best life insurance you can buy for yourself. It has become a priority in my life, over a perfectly clean house and up to date laundry. Everyone can achieve huge goals in life by sticking to a plan and doing a little bit every day. With six years of commitment, I was blessed to compete in 3 World Championship races, raced Boston Marathon and I am training to do my first Full Ironman in November.

    Dean Kroetsch Boston Marathon Experience

    Dean Kroetsch is in his Mid-fifties, happily married father of four, grandfather of one J. Active all my life in recreational sports but I don’t really consider myself an “athlete”. I do take pride in being in it for “the long run”; married to the same beautiful woman for 32 years. I’ve worked for the same company and career for over 36 years. And I run long distance races fundraising for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada through Team In Training. ​ ​​I ran some cross country when I was in junior high school but not since. My daughter Brianne got me back into running in 2014. We went in a half marathon in Calgary where I saw the table for Team In Training. ​​ ​​My Dad is a leukemia survivor. Bone marrow transplant in 1990. Still alive today. 14 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren he wouldn’t have experienced were it not for the research done and the patient care given to him. I help fundraise so others can live lives of victory.

National Women’s Hall of Fame, it was not just for breaking barriers being the first female to finish the Boston Marathon, or last woman to win the NYC Marathon, but also for creating positive global social change. Because of her, millions of women are now empowered by the simple act of running.
