When it comes to being active as a family, one of our favorite things to do is a race. Races can be very inspiring and the energy at these events is something that has to be experienced. Calgary plays host to races almost every weekend, so there are many opportunities to participate as a family. But with so many different races being offered, it can be daunting to try and find one that matches a family best.
If you want to help your family live a healthier and more active life, you’re in luck. You live in a city where nearly 500 sport organizations offer over 85 different sport activities. No matter what the sport, chances are there is a sport organization in Calgary that offers opportunities to learn and play. Participating in a wide variety of sport activities (as opposed to specializing in one sport or another) is particularly important for pre-adolescent boys and girls.
The longer and warmer days of Spring herald a new season and the opportunity for you to invite change and increased energy into your life. Consider it a restart button and use those extra hours of daylight to pamper yourself and plan for self-renewal.
Ovarian cancer is sometimes called the “silent killer” but a more appropriate description is a “disease that whispers” because most women do report symptoms, even those who are diagnosed at an early stage.
