Running Reflections: Running Adventures

There’s more to a conference than sitting in a room, listening to corporate updates, economic insights, portfolio manager reviews, and upcoming trends.

Conferences are also an opportunity to connect with colleagues and sneak in some mini-adventures!

I ventured out for a run/walk/hike with my colleague Jenna Roundell when we were at a conference a few weeks ago.

Breathtaking views and heart-pumping moments – not just from the movement, but also from two slip-slide tumbles down the muddy trail!

Blue Mountain, Ontario didn’t hold back on its challenge to seasoned runners.

Thankfully, no serious injuries – just a little natural “artwork” by way of bruising.

We’ll see how that masterpiece evolves in a day or two.

Despite the mud and spills, I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.

The views and laughter made it all worth it.

Join me for Coffee and Mental Health Advocacy!

From October, I’m pledging $1,040 to Ottawa Salus to support their mission of providing housing and support services for adults with mental health challenges. Over a year, I'll be hosting 52 coffee and conversation sessions where we can connect, share ideas, and make a difference.

For each coffee, I’ll donate $20 to Ottawa Salus and invite you to match it with a donation to your preferred charity. Let’s come together for meaningful discussions that empower our communities.

Interested? Drop me an email or DM on LinkedIn to schedule a time to chat. Let’s make our coffee count! 

TTFN,

Colleen
