Pints & Parkruns: Durham
Durham is a fitting place to start this not particularly athletic journey. As a young child, devotedly following Olympics and World Championships on TV, I’d sneak into the university sports grounds to trot around the track or fling myself into the long jump pit. In my mind, I was Daley Thompson, and no lack of coordination or ability could shake that belief. Later, Maiden Castle formed the backdrop to school cross country runs, which ended any confidence in my sporting prowess.

Oh treadmill, how I love thee. I can always depend on my treadmill to achieve weight loss and muscle tone. I have had a couple of different treadmills through the years and I have always been able to attain my goals with this outstanding piece of equipment. I have gone from a dedicated runner, to couch potato, to overweight and back and the only variable that did not work all the time was me!

Avoiding Ski Knee Injuries
With the winter olympics just finishing up and ski season still with a few months to go, many will be tempted to get out on the snow and give the frost conditions a run out.

Snow Lessons
“Yes, sir,” I said to you in the Ski Patrol headquarters. We weren’t on a call. This wasn’t even a practice scenario- we were just hanging out. You weren’t my boss in that moment. I knew I’d made a mistake when you looked at me quizzically. It’d been the “yes, sir” of a white woman who was proud to afford a simple human dignity to a person of color. Now, thanks to you, I see that things like dignity and equality do not belong to white people. They are not ours to give like presents to Black people or anyone else. It’s evident through your actions what you believe, Leland: they’re gifts from God to all humanity.

What is High-Intensity Resistance Training (HIRT)?
High-intensity resistance training is a form of resistance training that employs heavy loads from exercises such as deadlifts, squats, bench press, etc. High-intensity resistance training (HIRT) is a form of resistance training that uses heavy weights at low repetitions, usually under 8. High-Intensity Resistance Training emphasizes muscular strength and/or power rather than endurance. It also focuses on the ability of an individual to work against an external resistance with speed or explosiveness.
