Special thanks goes out to the Run for Life crew who allowed me to chase them around as filming commenced on “The Active City”.  Episode 1 “Born to Run”, focuses on our innate human capacity for running and how to safely and progressively approach this universal activity.  The episode should be ready for the air mid-September.  In the meantime, check out the trailer…

Yes, we can!  It might not happen overnight, or under the guise of clever slogan on a glossy brochure, but with efforts like the past weekend we will realize our goal of one of the most vibrant and physically active communities in Ontario.

Close to 30 groups, tonnes of volunteers, and hundreds of families helped create over 2000 new active experiences…WOW!  Please email andy@activecambridge.ca to share your stories, photos, and ideas for Expo 2011.  Great work Cambridge!

Recently, I had the opportunity to go out with Grand Experiences on the Grand River along with one of their corporate trips. After a delicious BBQ that they provided, they loaned me a kayak and gave a quick “how-to” while briefing the rest of the group on their canoe trip. Being in the kayak I was able to more easily maneuver myself and take some great footage of the group. As we leisurely paddled our way down the gently floating river we saw tons of wild life including birds of prey, small fish and minnows as well as a toad or two.

Overall it was a great day and I can’t wait to go out with them again, they are running cool events all the time and if any of you want information you can check out their website HERE or call them at (519)442-3654.

Gary’s official weigh shows a 67.5 pound weight loss since January…WOW! The best part is it was done naturally, together with family and community support, and all on the streets, trails, and facilities in Cambridge. What a great story of success!

Now Gary enters the next phase of his healthy living; finding a balanced way to maintain his gains and continue enjoying the benefits. Many thanks to all of the Activators who pitched in, Sarah Monette for the videography, and our friend at “Daytime” for following the story. We’ll check in with Gary regularly to see how things are shaping up.
