NYC marathon

Hi stairmasters,

So, it's done we registered for the NYC marathon lottery! Now we just have to keep our fingers crossed until July 2009... I can not help dreaming of us running in Central Park under a bright sun :=)

Work your core muscles to be faster and injury free

Hi stairmasters,

It was a long time since you got some news...
I would like to suggest some cross-training exercises that are supposed to help us to have a nice running posture: http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-238-263--13030-3-1X2X3X4-5,00.html

If you do these routine exercices 3 to 4 times a week, I ensure you that you will (almost) get the same abs as Lolo Jones....

Let me know your opinion ;=)

Isabel and Chris, we are not forgetting you, we will let you know for NYC marathon as soon as we will get more informations!

Tip of the week

Hi buddies,

To run fast and prevent injuries, train your core muscles. For example, follow these exercices: http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-238-263-266-12756-0,00.html.

It will also help to climb the stairs!

This saturday it would really be challenging with the siberian cold...

See you,

Anne

A beautiful Sunday afternoon

After the 8 stairs, we decided to relax on Sunday afternoon ;=) and some of us went for cross-country skiing. And even if we are not yet professionnal cross-country skiers we had such a good time!

Hi extreme stairsmasters and Co,

Last Saturday we had 8 stairs to complete and we did them! Despite the cold (around - 20C), we were 6 braves fighting the elements and the Mount Royal stairs. We kept encouraging ourself by thinking at the ultimate goal: the traditionnal hot chocolate! What a deception when we realized that our favourite place was closed... but lucky as we were, we found a new place that enabled us to test a new hot chocolate recipe. And as usual we had a really good time!
