About me

For a long time I have pondered what makes some people achievers and others let life push them along. What magic was inside Terry Fox, Rick Hanson and Lance Armstrong, among many others, driving them to become world class atheletes against unfair odds ? In a modest way I am very curious to find out if there is an outer limit as to what average Canadians like myself can achieve.

I think its this curiosity that helped me enjoy a very successful career in the corporate world for over 40 years and continues to drive me in new directions today. I love to run, continuing to grow in my Kendo journey, and have enjoyed the incredible experiences of flying, sailing, scuba diving, and also ski-ing with my Granddaughter. So far I have not found that outer limit and hope that I never do.

Most recently I qualified as Personal Trainer and through this I hope to motivate others so that they can enjoy the tremendous feeling of personal growth ....... Party On !!!!

    Thanks for the comment Alex. It's pretty simple, but my video's should evolve into more advanced routines as they progress :)

    Hi Dad, I tried looking for the phtos you mentioned but i can't see them. Do I have to be a memeber of the cycling group to see them? Thomas

    Thanks Alex. Been doing some searching on the different types of protein. My son prefers Sun Warrior made from rice. I have picked up a protein powder made from pumpkin seed to try as well as a sampler package of protein made from plant based products. Any one like to comment of their favorite protein product?
