Aerobics First has been Halifax, Nova Scotia's local running, ski and snowboard shop for over 29 years, which makes us one of the oldest and most dedicated stores in Canada. What began as a simple running store with our own hand-made running-specific clothing (you should have seen the suits!), to leading the ski scene in the 1980s, A1 is now the store of choice for shoe fitting, skis, snowboards, running and winter apparel, triathlon gear and a big dose of active living culture.
We're heavily involved in our community as ambassadors, event promoters and are a strong community partner to many organizations. Our staff likes to live the good life and we'd love to share our enthusiasm for the great outdoors with you. Stop in to see us 6166 Quinpool Rd, Halifax, NS or give us a call at 423 1470.
I grew up in Dartmouth where I ran with Dartmouth Athletics and Prince Andrew High School. After graduating, I moved all the way out west to attend the University of Victoria. I completed my B.A. in English in 2007. I also competed for five years with the UVic Vikes "specializing" in the 800m outdoors and 600m and 1000m indoors. I finished with personal bests of 1:52.02 for 800m and 3:53.70 for 1500m.

This past week was the heaviest week of training I've had in over a year. And I'm definitely paying the price today. Tuesday I did three sets of three 300s between 43 and 46 seconds. The third set was tough, but I managed to make my last rep my fastest. I would like to have been 42ish, but it just wasn't in the cards that day. Thursday was twenty minutes of tempo. I hate running at tempo pace; it's hard enough that it's not comfortable, but slow enough that you don't get that feeling of cutting through the air. It's just a death march.
