Disclaimer: As a lululemon ambassador, I go for regular fit sessions to try on their stuff. I get an ambassador credit to buy stuff for myself and they will also sometimes give things to me for free. All opinions are my own! Now that winter is almost here, it's so important to have the right …

Ode to Strava
To celebrate my first 200km month, I wrote an Ode to Strava. 🤣🤣🤣 You have kept track of my journey ever since we met. How did I ever live without you? You show the world how strong I am, you remind me what I've achieved. I'm happy to hear your voice. I'm worried when I …
