Maui in Pictures

cycling in maui

This was the first real vacation I took in 2 years and I was seriously not excited about it at all because I didn’t want to leave my wonderful life in Vancouver but Maui was fun, better than I expected and I did almost everything I wanted to do.  I never did get use to the time zone difference though so once it got dark, it felt like midnight and the grandma in me was ready to go to bed even though it was only 7pm. Anyway, here is a photo diary of our trip…

Somewhere on a rock in West Maui with a Specialized Roubaix
Of course, a blog post isn’t complete without a poser cyclist picture.

Workout
We worked out almost everyday bright and early in the AM. Tabata, HIIT, sprints, bike rides, runs… fitness first! How wonderful it is to have fit and committed friends who don’t bitch and complain about breaking a sweat (and waking up super early for it)!
Of course, the highlight of my trip were thebikes rides!! We rented a couple Specialized Roubaix roadbikes and spent our day cycling in heaven. Our 100km route was very easy but it was extremely mentally challenging because of the heat and the strong (and HOT) headwind. When the locals warn you about the winds, they are not joking!

Cycling in Maui
But when it gets too hot, you can just pull over and take a dip in the ocean. Definitely heaven.
Fish Market in Paia, Maui
Our biking destination was the Fish Market in Paia where we shared a yummy mahi mahi burger and delicious calamari while talking to a guy who dropped everything in life to live his dream in Maui (and he was a cyclist too— which was why we started talking in the first place when he saw our bikes).
I don't know what he was thinking but he biked in SANDALS and very Hawaiian-ish board shorts (and the long sleeve to cover this sun burn). I'm sure he had a few regret... harharhar.

MASSIVE FEASTS in Maui
The theme of the trip were MASSIVE FEASTS. We ate like kings and queens every single day. Loco moco, 96 Kusshi oysters for $96, too many tacos, seafood galore, poke, cinnamon buns … and a black forest cake parfait cup that I found at Safeway that I got horribly addicted to. I love Black Forest.
Poppin' Bottles in Maui
…and poppin’ bottles. Lots of bottles. Hey we are Canadian okay. Any time we are in the US, we always take advantage of the cheap liquor prices …and the fact that every hour is happy hour in Maui.
A very Hawaiian breakfast.
A very Hawaiian breakfast: spam, Poke and eggs.
Girlfriends
Girlfriends: you can’t live without them.
Maui Sunset
Beautiful sunsets (although the sun sets wayyy too early). Another reason why I cannot live there!
Biking in West Maui
Next time I’m in Maui, it will be to bike up 10,000ft to the top of Haleakala from sea level. I didn’t get to do it this trip because I was suffering from knee pain but now we have a reason to go back!
Beaching in Maui
And a cliche beachy picture to end this entry.

On Intentions

Yesterday, I jumped out of bed and hopped on my bike, on route to Horseshoe Bay. As I was spinning up a hill on to work afterwards,

I WILL TEACH YOU TO EFFORTLESSLY INTEGRATE HEALTH AND FITNESS INTO YOUR LIFE, WHILE LIVING IT BOLDLY AND FEARLESSLY.

Hi! I am Kate. I walk the walk and I talk the talk. I’ve been living a self-proclaimed “effortlessly” fit and healthy lifestyle for the last decade. This blog has been around since 2005 and serves as an archive for my journey.

I’ve been biohacking since 2014. I believe we need a balance of modern medicine and holistic healing to thrive in our world today.

Menu

I do NOT diet, count calories, watch my macros, nor do I beat myself up if I don’t workout daily. Eating well, cooking nutritious and delicious meals, and exercise is as second nature to me as brushing my teeth. How? I focussed on habits and lifestyle instead of outcomes. Wellness shouldn’t be hard!
