You can find a lot of hiking essentials articles and videos on the Internet, including our own hiking video at the bottom of this blog […] read more »

Fitness Friday: Feeling Booby-Trapped?

By Cindy on May 24, 2013

Boobs, boobs, glorious boobs! Small ones, large ones, round, oblong and re-constructed ones, boobs with a mind of their own, pointing north and pointing south. Today it’s all about where to find good athletic gear for the girls. Finding a good athletic bra that addresses all the mini and major miracles bras are called upon to do can be tricky.

By Lisa Christie on May 3, 2013

Good music makes every class more fun, every walk feel shorter, and every set of repetitions feel more doable. Don’t you agree?

Fitness Friday: Your Outdoor Gym

Fitness Friday: Take A Walk with Me

By Lisa Christie on April 5, 2013

The down drop of the blackbird, The wing catch of arrested flight, The stop midway and then off: off for triangles, circles, loops of new hieroglyphs— This is April’s way: a woman: “O yes, I’m here again and your heart knows I was coming. -Carl Sandburg It’s been a long winter just about everywhere, and Vermont has been no exception.

Getting Unstuck: Shaking Up The Same Fitness Routine

By Jill on March 29, 2013

I have a confession: I’ve maintained pretty much the same fitness routine in the year and a half since I left Green Mountain at Fox Run. That routine consisted of strength training with barbells and free weights, beginning step classes and yoga. In January, I decided I needed to make some changes. I was sick of yoga.
