9 MAG 2024 ·   We invited Jen Williston and Maryse Babineau on our show today to talk about the Moncton Women trail running group. We wanted an update about events that the ladies are going to compete in this year. The first thing that strikes you when you listen to this episode is how dedicated these women are to their trail running. Tuesday is the day and for these two ladies, it is non-negotiable even with the busy lives they lead. We talk about the stress relief of getting out and running with the group. How the group started and if they run trails in the Winter or even in the dark. Of course, a trail-running podcast episode isn't complete without talking about Bacon. If you are in the area and want to run with the Women's trail running group check them out. The links for the Moncton groups are below.

2 MAG 2024 ·  Our very special guest tonight is Ian Loughead, senior conservator at an N.S. museum. Early on Ian was into team sports, Soccer, and especially Baseball. Later on in his 20s, Ian started cycling and doing road races, 70-90 km runs and he did this for 5-6 years. Of course, this led to Duathlons and finishing over 20 Triathlons. This has all led to Ian being involved in the Maritime Dog Harness Association and Harness Dog Sports. Canicross is a sport where a dog and a human run together. Your dog needs to be on their lead throughout the event and harness belts and bungee lines must be in use. A great way for people and dogs to get outdoors exercise and have some fun. We discuss Ian's charity race for Movember every year and how Ian only got serious about running in his 40s. See it's never too late. Lastly, we talk about how Ian is now into coaching runners and how much he enjoys helping others reach their goals.

11 APR 2024 ·   Dr. Bob Forbes is back on our show this week, what he did is so amazing and cool we couldn't wait. Dr. Bob ran a marathon in Antarctica, meaning he has run a marathon on all 7 continents. The best part is we talk all about it, so few people have thought about doing what Dr. Bob did. Bob and his wife took a boat ride to Antarctica and away he went. We hear about the weather, what it was like getting there, the terrain, and much more. We chat about Bob and his Boston marathon runs and the one coming up on April 15th. If you have ever thought about what it might be like to run in a very faraway place then this episode is for you. It has been 100 episodes since Bob was last on, you can bet we will not wait as long next time.

4 APR 2024 ·  What a fantastic talk we had with Carolane Pitre. Originally from Quebec and now living in Halifax, this young lady has been through a lot and will not give up. Her determination, drive, and personality will not allow her to stop. The one time she did haunted her so much that she had to duplicate the event to make amends. Running, swimming and biking keep Carolane motivated, put all three together and it's a dream come true. We asked Carolane about her cycling accident and how long it took to recover. Carolane was back on the bike as soon as she was physically able. As always on Motivate to Move, it's wonderful to see people motivated to keep on moving and not let anything get in their way. Great job Carolane, we can't wait to see what is next for you.  Motivate to Move email, let us know who should be on the show: motivatetomove.podcast@gmail.com Motivate to Move Facebook page, check us out: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100041607699495 As always please give the gift of life and donate blood today.

28 MAR 2024 ·   We had a wonderful interview with all three of our guests Dan Foote his son Caleb Foote and one of their instructors Wyatt Macquarrie-milco. The charity We Believe last held in 2023 in Saint John brought over 8 thousand educators, students, and speakers together simultaneously. The message was simple, encouraging youth to be the Change. Some of the issues on the table were mental and physical health, volunteering, bullying, self-worth, and how each of us can better the world. This event was live streamed all over the world and 2025 will be even bigger and better. Tickets for the event are free and all the links will be below in the notes so check it out.   Empowered to Ride is another program, instructors Caleb Foote and his good friend Wyatt are helping kids get on donated and bought mountain bikes and go riding through the trails. Inspiring our kids to stay active and get outdoors. Now they have 10 bikes and the demand for children taking this course is high so why don't we help these guys get more bikes to help more kids? links are below. This is a great story and one that we hope others will hear and support.

21 MAR 2024 ·  Tonight our very special guest is Graham Black, a native of Montreal who has lived in Moncton for the past 24 years. Graduated from Concordia University, with a degree in Sports Medicine as a Certified Athletic Therapist and Strength and Conditioning Specialist with over 25 years of experience in both fields. Graham is also the athletic Therapist for our Moncton Wildcats and is currently Co-owner of Sportmed Max in Dieppe. A former guest that we enjoy having on, Michael Roy, suggested making an appointment to see Graham and I am very glad I did. We discuss the difference between a Physiotherapist and an Athletic Therapist and some of the common injuries that Graham sees. Graham surprises us with something he is seeing more often, I didn't have this on my radar at all but makes sense when you think about things today. When Graham isn't seeing people at his clinic he is hard at work with the Moncton Wildcats, Go cats go! Winning the Memorial Cup is always the goal and maybe this year that will happen. We had an amazing discussion and Graham is so good at telling stories, especially about when he needed a suit at the last minute to be hired for the Wildcats job.    I enjoyed my time at Sportmed Max Physiotherapy and I wanted to get the phone number out there for anyone who could use any of the services that they provide, links below. We hope everyone who tunes in has a wonderful day and stays safe and injury-free.

13 MAR 2024 ·   Greg Scott started racing mountain bikes at a later stage of life finishing dead last for the first few. After Greg had some races under his belt the results got better and better, now at 63 Greg hopes to make the podium and keep on biking as long as possible. With two broken ribs, one clavicle,  seven broken helmets, plus cancer treatments and a ton of bike parts replaced, there is no doubt Greg loves racing mountain bikes. Greg also designs and maintains courses trying to use the lay of the land to help with a more natural design plan. Why not work in a bike shop with some spare time, Greg loves to help others get on their bike and accomplish their goals. An inspiring tale about someone who just will not give up. The Elgin 80 is Greg's next big race and we believe he will have fun no matter where he finishes, good luck Greg Motivate to Move email: motivatetomove.podcast@gmail.com Motivate to move Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100041607699495 As always, please give the gift of life and donate blood today.

29 FEB 2024 · "How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives." Words to live by and Cory Richardson does live by these words that is why we invited him back onto our show. Cory is very passionate about getting our youth outdoors more and on the internet less. We wanted to take a deeper dive into how this could be accomplished. We discuss a wide range of topics about how this may be done. Our direction is more important than our speed, just getting started is half the battle. How many people have gear for outdoor activities they never use, I know I do. Maybe the schools could help out? it's possible. We are hoping that someone can listen to this and help this process along. All the links are below if you would like to contact Cory and see if there might be something you could do. Let's spread the word and help to keep our youth more active in the great outdoors. That would be good for everyone, mentally and physically.
